"Aldridge Enterprises provided meticulous customer and technical services throughout the deck building process. I conducted a best value proposal evaluation to select Aldridge over three other quotes from reputable contractors. Aldridge, represented by its owner, Fred, provided a comprehensive, fair, and fixed-price quote that exceeded my expectations in terms of value. Aldridge used much higher quality products than competitors quoted for a much more reasonable overall cost. Sure, I could have paid more for less, but why would anybody do that? My homework paid off and Aldridge further proved that I made a very wise decision selecting them as my contractor. Fred is the consummate professional and remained fair, focused, and flexible from the initial quote to completion. He quickly earned my trust and confidence and retained it throughout the process. The two on-site “craftsmen” who built the deck, Justin and Mike, were the most professional, technically competent, and thorough contractors I have ever hired. From digging the footing holes to final County inspection, Justin and Mike maintained an exceptionally professional decorum, kept me informed of progress, and represented the absolute best in technical and customer service. I could not be happier with the final product and the entire project was incredibly successful and pleasurable throughout. Amazing work Aldridge Enterprises! Thank you!"

"I hired Gary to replace some rotten wood around my window and to repaint some trim that was very high on an upper window. Gary and his helper Rich showed up on time and were very professional. They completed the work on time and it was done within our discussed budget. Gary is a very honest and trustworthy individual. I will most certainly hire him again."

"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!"

"Paul did an exceptional job with my stair remodel job. My stairs were very complicated because of the angular turns and pie shaped platforms. His craftsmanship and quality of work were excellent. He did exactly what he said he would do. He kept the area clean , put down drop cloth, and put up cloth barriers to keep the dust down throughout the rest of the house. I highly recommend him for custom stair work. He is a top rate professional."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

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.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.
