"Miguel came to replace an exterior door that had rot on the bottom. He replaced the entire door and frame with a new door within a couple hours. He made sure I was completely satisfied, even checked for leaks. He did such a great job that I called him back to help with my kitchen door. Price was fair, he was quick and efficient."

"I hired D Design Woodworking to build a floor mirror utilizing an antique mirror from an English armoire. We discussed the design, the type of wood (maple) to be used and the stain color. I received the mirror yesterday and I couldnâ t be happier. The mirror looks great in the frame and Iâ m extremely impressed with the workmanship. The mirror is very substantial and the stain matches our new bedroom furniture perfectly. I cannot recommend D Design more highly."

"The company was in constant contact with me prior to doing this job, which was much appreciated. The work was excellent. The young man who came was very nice and helpful. He cleaned the area when he was finished. I am very pleased with this company and will call them again in the near future. I have something else I discussed with Sam and will be requesting him for his help. You will be completely satisfied if you contact this company. I feel this company is one that you can depend on for your needs."

"Fantastic and professional. We have a small house and lost some of our gutters to a snow storm, so we decided to renovate the rest of our gutter system while repairing the damaged sections. Working with HGE was a refreshingly positive experience. All of their team members were courteous, straightforward, and responsive. The work took two days with a weather interruption in between, but communication was prompt which let us accommodate the weather. All in all, great company. I just wish they did fencing so I could hire them again."

"These guys know what they are doing. On time, always polite. They kept everything clean throughout the project. Finished in great time, great work, great price. Easy to work with. My repair looks better than ever before. Truly beautiful. They made sure everything was right and even repaired the framing stronger then the original 1984 build. Would recommend for anyone every time."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

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.
