"John is incredible. After weeks of getting estimates from general contractors and carpenters, John was the easiest to work with as he was straight-forward and scheduled the work within days and got it done with incredible efficiency; moreover, the quality was top notch and he went above and beyond in his demolition work to prep our basement for an interior drain system. John demo'd old drywall, removed old insulation, and meticulously dismantled the wall framing such that it can be easily reinstated after our drain system is installed. I feel lucky to have found John and look forward to working with him for much of our carpentry needs into the future!"

"We hired them to replace the floor in our living, kitchen, dining room, and laundry room. They worked with us to decide what kind/color flooring we wanted, did it in the time frame indicated, cleaned while they worked, were fun to be around, and came in UNDER estimate. I think the most important part is he returns phone calls/texts! Some things came up so it messed up the timeline we had (no big deal) and he let us know ahead of time. If you work (or try to) with any sort of contractor, hearing from them is the biggest challenge. The pics attached are what they faced when they pulled the carpet and the other pic is mid-dining room reno. Highly recommend - as much as I hate to, they may not be available for our next project if people hear how great they are!"

"Having Champlain Valley Builders remodel our family home in Colchester was an experience we’ll always be grateful for. We started with a kitchen remodel and added a bathroom renovation, transforming a home filled with years of memories. Kyle was exceptional throughout the entire process. His communication was honest, responsive, and reassuring. He listened to what we wanted, offered thoughtful guidance, and kept us informed every step of the way.The craftsmanship was outstanding. The carpenters treated our home with genuine care and completed every detail with pride and precision. The finished kitchen and bath are beautiful and completely transformed. Most importantly, Kyle and the Champlain Valley Builders team understood they weren’t simply remodeling a house—they were working on our family home. That meant everything to us.We couldn’t be happier with the results and wholeheartedly recommend this fantastic company. I wish I had room to write more on how exceptional they are. 5 stars"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.

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.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.
