I will be definitely hiring him for other projects in the future. I highly recommend this company to anybody who has projects that need to be done. Thanks."

"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."

"Nothing but great things to say about this company. They replaced a door frame that was destroyed by my cat and painted some other door frames and all I can say is that it came out perfect. Yuri and Andre did an amazing job, showed up right on time (early actually) and were incredibly friendly. Keep up the good work! Highly recommended!"

"I asked Edwin at Orozco to re-upholster an ottoman and make me some pillows. Edwin was very responsive and a delight to work with. He worked with me to clarify what I wanted and turned the project around very quickly, at a very reasonable price. I will use him again if I have other projects and will gladly recommend him to all my friends. An A+ experience!"

"We have had an extremely excellent experience with Paradise! We had a complete redo of a bedroom which began with gutting the room of old celing, paneled walls and old flooring, with a complete remodel of the celing and bedroom including framing new walls; installation of insulation, drywall hung and walls painted. The bedroom was completely finished with trim and crown molding along with trim around the bedroom windows, a new bedroom door and closet door were placed with new knobs and hardware. A new celing light was installed along with smaller details like new covers for the electric outlets and light switches. Other jobs have included a revamp of an outdoor area by placing stones throughout the entire area with river rocks and pea pebbles to clean up a unusable dirty sandy area in the back and side yard and laying down a stepping stone pathway from one side to the other. We also had a very small carport made over a concrete parking area on our driveway."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.
