"I highly recommend Vobiscum Construction Inc for any home improvements you need done. Leo, Marco and the whole team with Vobiscum were excellent. They were attentive and easy to coordinate with through the entire process. They finished the project quickly and seamlessly, I’m so impressed. I had quite a large project on my single story home that needed completion (urgent frame and truss repair, roof replacement, fascia replacement and more). The roof and carpentry work came out beautiful, the pictures don’t do it justice. I no longer have to worry about a leaking roof or failing structure. I can’t thank them enough for their help and for giving me peace of mind. Thank you Vobiscum and your team!"

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.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

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.
