"Ivan, Dave, Josh, Jesse and James (along with a couple others whose names I didn't learn) were amazing! My home project of handling wood rot, other water damage, painting, gate replacements, fan installation and various repairs became quite involved and they stuck with it with a great attitude and workmanship. They were very knowledgeable and handled my various requests quite professionally!"

"Pads are well built, have magnets inbuilt at seams to hold together. They fit exactly right and are good looking. They came earlier than expected and I used them by Thanksgiving and have used them to protect my table at parties ever since. No problems."

"Dany's paint job is incredibly meticulous and precise. Additionally, he fixed all the dry wall problems we had while he was painting. The epoxy in the garage is FLAWLESS. I highly recommend working with Dany. I has small issues with the blinds after his painting service. He made sure to come back to fix everything!. I will 100% hire Dany again for any future painting services!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

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.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.
