"I called Cransten because they were authorized installers of an Auxx lift system. Alexei Newenham came out and did the work of relocating my existing attic access folding ladder, cutting and blocking a new hole, and installing the Auxx lift. Alexei was great, and I highly recommend him. His work is good, he is personable, and he is skilled at the rough framing, trim carpentry, plastering and painting, and complex lift install. He is the first one I’ll call when I want more work done."

"Dynasty Decks, LLC are consummate professionals. Hard working, true to their world, friendly, approachable. Trustworthy. A marvelous throwback to the standards of workmanship and timeliness. Their bid was as good or better than any other I found, their timeline a fraction. They got in, built the deck, and were gone in a week. The next fastest offer was two months, practically the entire summer. Highly recommended builder."

Customers say: True professional

"Rich Johnson just finished our project today, and I am very happy with the end result. He helped us move furniture, ripped out carpet, replaced interior doors and closet doors, including cutting them to size, adjusting them, and moving a door jam. He also ripped out and replaced door and window trim, baseboards, and turned a door around. He found a small leak that had caused some wall damage, and he replaced the sheetrock and mudded that. His woodworking and mudding skills are excellent. My neighbor was impressed with his matching-mitered corners. Then he filled nail holes and cracks to prep for paint. Next time, I will ask him to fill the mitered corners with wood filler instead of caulk, since I completed that before painting. He is a very pleasant guy to work with, extremely easy to communicate and work with. He often came to me to ask how I wanted something done, instead of just doing it his way. He completed the job to my happy satisfaction."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
