"From design to completion, Brandon exhibited all the professional qualities that one would expect from a home improvements contractor. I am impressed with the design, function, and maintainability of the custom cabinetry he made for the kitchen portion of my renovation. He has transformed three areas of disorganized space(kitchen, dining and bedroom) into functional and masterful works of art. His attention to detail is evident in his exceptional craftsmanship and carpentry skills."

"Two level deck needed minor surface rot repair, power washing, and staining. Flores Enterprises LLC quoted and completed the work in the same business week. Attention to detail on staining is excellent. Provided photos of repairs and completed work and kept me informed on any issues which arose. Would definitely hire again."

"I have a 15 year old deck off our main floor that totals about 642 'sq. Over the years I have re-stained it and replaced a few boards and this year I noticed it seemed in worse shape and I was dreading doing all that again myself. So I called 'Jim the Handyman' for their free estimate. I accepted that after their on-site review and two fellows came to move many things off the deck and power wash. They cleaned up the mess that made and the work revealed more boards were rotting than earlier could be seen. So, slightly revised cost estimate and then larger crew for one day of carpentry and then two days of staining. I am a believer in DIY but this time I'm glad I called on the professionals. Great quality and good value. I recommend them. And I was glad to say farewell to many rotten boards."

"Bledar and his team repaired our laundry room after some water damage. They did a wonderful job. They did the work in the time frame quoted and for a reasonable price. They were professional, kind, and went above and beyond. We will definitely use them again the future!"

"I recently had the pleasure of hiring Crowning Touch to work on a wall feature in my condo, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, they exceeded all expectations. Right from the initial consultation, it was evident that professionalism was his hallmark. Guy was consistently punctual, arriving on time and ready to work diligently. His cordial demeanor made the entire process not only smooth but also enjoyable. One of the most notable aspects of his service was his attention to detail. Despite the challenges posed by working in a condo environment, they exhibited a level of care and precision that truly set him apart. It was evident that he took great pride in his craft, ensuring that every aspect of the project was executed flawlessly. What's more, Crowning Touch’s pricing was incredibly reasonable, offering excellent value for the high-quality work they delivered. In a market where quality often comes at a premium, Crowning Touch provides an unbeatable combination of affordability and excellence. Without a doubt, I will be returning to Crowning Touch for any future carpentry needs.

"It was a pleasure working with Mark and his team. We hired them for a variety of home improvement projects including replacing the exterior window framing, installing a new front door, putting a vent in the kitchen, adding an outdoor electrical outlet, and repairing drywall/painting in the garage and living room. Mark came out right away to give an estimate and was able to start work the following week. Christian and the crew were professional and easy to work with. They did quality work in a short period of time. While they were working we added several items to our "wish list" and they were able to accommodate our new requests and still finish on time. We would definitely hire them again for other home repair needs."

"Efficient crew. They had excellent communication skills. I was apprised of needed alterations to the deck as they laid trex Composite flooring.All my questions were answered. I was given ideas on hanging my Shepard's hook that holds my bird feeder to the railing after the installation of Trex. The crew of 2 persons worked 3 days to give me a beautiful new flooring, stairs and railing look. I will be staining the wood tines myself."

"Five years ago Rick and his team had completed a full rehab of our deck and we love it. Recently, a material defect occurred and Rick stood by his work when the manufacturer would not. At his expense, he got new material and provided the same great carpenters, (Skip, Gary, and Heracio) as last time and made things right. I highly recommend their work and am happy to share their name with everyone who enjoys our deck. Check out the photos.Thank you again."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.
