"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me. Overall, they're good designs. However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning. I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging. Jill was very responsive when I did have a question. I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done. If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs. "
"Caden knows concrete! I hired Caden to pour a slab for my new build. I was very impressed with his ambition and the skills he put on display. Along with concrete work I would not hesitate to hire Broadhead construction for any other construction work needed"
"The entire experience was so positive. Jesse wasnâ t just someone we hired for a custom project, he (and his family) became friends throughout the process. He is an outstanding carpenter, but an even better person. Laid back with a good sense of humor, he helped guide us through the design process, listening to our ideas, brainstorming with us and offering suggestions on what might be better materials, more realistic options and the best ways to utilize our space to achieve our desired goals. We now have a beautiful statement piece in our home - and it feels like we built it â togetherâ . His attention to detail is second to none and we wouldnâ t hesitate to hire him for another custom project in the future."
"If quality, honesty, and thorough attention is what you are seeking then this is the company for you. Check to make sure they can match your time lines."
Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts
For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors.
Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.
It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.
Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.
Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.
