"Amazing professional! Ryan built custom french doors for our foyer, and without doubt, is the best finish carpenter I have ever dealt with. Always on time, meticulous in his craftsmanship and goes the extra steps to provide a beautiful finished project. I find it so refreshing that he works with you on the smallest details and his vision of the completed project was in sync with ours; his expertise made the project result even better than we could have imagined. He custom mills the lumber for your project and the end result is a one-of-a kind, high quality product both you and he can be proud of. The sign of a true craftsman is when he is pleased with what he gives you; it's not perfect until Ryan is happy with the finished product. We will use him again."

"Marco and his team framed my entire addition, installed a 30 foot long beam, built and installed the roof, and installed multiple large sliders and picture windows. Always on time, always did what he said he would. Kept everything very clean and cleaned up after. I can not recommend him enough. 10/10!"

"Needed trim replacement over my carport. Joel at Green Light was very responsive to my request. He made a site visit and explained what he needed to do to complete the project. He and his crew arrived on time and with the supplies they needed. They were professional and thorough. The project was completed on budget and clean up was impressive. I would recommend them for anyone with a large or small project."

"Classy Closets was recommended to us by the company that remodeled our master bathroom. Sean Ireland brought samples and photos to our home to help us decide what type of installation we wanted in our closet. He took measurements and then provided a couple of different sets of CAD drawings for us to choose from. He provided updates to the drawings in a timely manner and helped us to make cost-effective choices. Sean worked with us to schedule the installation to coordinate with the work in our closet. The installers arrived promptly and completed the job as scheduled. The resulting closet is beautiful. The workmanship is excellent. Our closet is oddly shaped and all the cuts/carpentry fits exactly. The drawers and doors operate beautifully and the aesthetic is just what we wanted."

"Rob was amazing to work with from the design concept to taking the time to get the wood stain exactly right. The craftsmanship was excellent and he worked within the promised time frame. Our 1970s stair railings were removed and replaced with a beautiful iron and wood that have updated our home. He cleaned up everyday leaving the work are free of debris I highly recommend California Stair and Millworker."

"We found McCormick home builders through Angie’s list. They were not one of our original contacts, but they contacted us and came out to give us a quote. Matteo was extremely helpful, informative, honest, and gave us reasonable realistic prices, and did not try to inflate the prices or pressure us in anyway. We felt very comfortable with him immediately. We felt like he was a member of the family that we could just talk to and ask questions he was very personable. He gave us his contact number in case we had other questions and he was always available when we needed him for any type of questions or concerns. Mateo‘s team did a beautiful job. They were fast. They were efficient. They cleaned up beautifully. They did a wonderful job. They were very considerate of our time our needs and our neighbors. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Matteo from McCormick home builders for any home building projects, and we will be calling him again in the future!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

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.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.
