"Considering a couple of delays due to inspections and revising some structural changes, I am pleased with the finished product. The garage addition blends with the original structure. I did use a HF magnetic sweeper near construction area to make sure none of the nails made it into our tires (and found several)"

"We hired Joe Lutz Construction to build a new two car garage from plans provided by a local architect. The build site was a challenging sloped lot and Joe provided photos and customer contacts of similar jobs he had done, demonstrating his skill and competence which gave us confidence. Joe presented a contract that was clear and professional listing materials and methods of construction with a payment timeline related to the completion of various stages of the build. He handled all of the permit inspections and kept the project on track. The quality of the work was excellent, and Joe's communication skills kept us informed and updated on all aspects of the project. We are very satisfied with the work Joe and his team did and highly recommend him for your next construction project."

"Joshua is great! I purchased the toilets at Home Depot and arranged for Joshua to pick them up. Well HD Lancaster location only had two of the HE toilets that I wanted, so the 3rd toilet was picked up in the HD Palmdale store. Joshua did all this with pleasure. He was on time, work was completed superbly and cleanup was on point. I will always call on Joshua for my Handyman needs..."

"Job went great! Ishmael and his co-worker Jarnel literally carried our upright piano from its current spot, up two stairs, and down two stairs to it's new spot. Each time they put the piano down, they did it gently and with great care. No bumping or dropping! Would definitely hire them again for any heavy lifting."

"The work done was very high quality at a reasonable price. Michae and his team are extremely knowledgeable, professional and efficient. They ensure the job is done well and they do not cut corners. I was thoroughly impressed and satisfied with the work done on my home. If you are looking for a team to do a job for you that you can trust, I would HIGHLY recommend Michae and his team. I will be hiring them again in the future if I need more work done, without a second thought. It’s hard to find a team that you can trust to do excellent work. I am beyond fortunate that I found Michae and his team!"

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.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

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.

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.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
