"I reached out to Ronald and he got back to me promptly and came by to meet me and assess the job (driveway replacement) soon after. He went over the materials and how the process would go (emphasizing the quality of their work which I appreciated). He also informed me he would be there supervising the work crew doing the demolition first, and then the concrete pourâ ¦ I am very pleased with how the driveway turned out! He always got back to me quickly if I had a question or a concern. The crew did a great job as well and cleaned up accordingly."

"They was patient people because they built my fence and had to wait almost 3 weeks for my iron gate to come so they could finish and get paid. I had other odd jobs around the house and asked if they could do it and they did. If it was a job they couldn't do they sent people my way that could and I appreciate that too."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
