"Perfect. They did excellent work. Very professional and very clean as well. I don't think another carpenter could have done what needed to be done as well as Carlos did. I am extremely pleased."

"Anthony did a wonderful job putting new door fronts on our cabinets in the kitchen, laundry, room, and small bathroom. He was also able to install drawers where there used to be cabinets. He was very conscientious to make sure that I was happy with the door style that was chosen. The men who came in to do the installation were efficient and friendly. Anthony is excellent at communicating during the process and returns any calls very quickly. I’m very happy with the results and highly recommend Anthony’s custom remodeling."

Customers say: True professional

"Kyle came by my condo, listened patiently to my needs and gave me a fair quote to do the work. He returned the next day and completed all the work skillfully and expeditiously. Kyle insisted we walk around the condo together to confirm all the work was done to my satisfaction. The work done included painting, caulking and handyman work. Kyle clearly showed pride in his work and concern for me, his customer. I will hire him again without hesitation and would recommend his company to anyone needing handyman services."

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.

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.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

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.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.
