"Roman & his Crew had the task of demoing and repairing an area where a once leaky water heater damaged kitchen floor. Moving the new water heater into the garage where it really should have been in the first place (older home) & replacing the plumbing & electric running to it. Once demo started it was totally necessary to replace the flooring down to the joists & subfloor so that the new LVP could be put into place. New electrical outlets were ran to accommodate the new cabinets and dishwasher, along with new drywall that was painted & trimmed out. They're working on being 1 of the best remodeling companies in our area. Thank you"

"They did a good job. I was just hoping it would stop my wood floors from creaking but they are worse. Overall believe the work done will be good for the house support though"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.
