"It was clear and evident that Fred was experienced and knowledgable when he came to my home to discuss what I wanted and gave me a reasonable estimate. Upon signing a contract, Justin and Mike were tasked with the build out. They were on site at the times they said they would be, extremely personable and educated within their field of work. They were also extremely hospitable in allowing me to watch them show their expertise as a learning experience. I would most certainly hire Fred and his crew again and highly recommend!"

"Great job! They did the work they promised on schedule at the agreed upon price. We have some bay windows that were original construction and the floor was not insulated. They put in insulation and proper soffit. Looks great! And for the first time in 7 seven years, our house main floor is not cold this winter! I have other projects that I will have them do as well!"

"I had 2 exterior doors that had rotted wood around the framing and the center supports and needed new thresholds. Oscar from King Contracting came out and gave me a detailed explanation of what would be done and sent a detailed estimate of repairs. The repairs were done to specification and the carpenter, Alberto did an exacting, excellent job. The site was cleaned up and project done on time. Oscar came back to inspect the next day and I told him how pleased I was with the work Alberto had done. I would definitely hire his company again for repairs at our home."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.
