"Very reliable...did what we expected & in the time frame. We are pleased with their work. We just moved to this area and did not know any trade people in this area and so glad to meet. I was concerned because of the company's name I.e, "Carpentry" but was not an issue after we saw their work. Will considered Nunes Carpentry for other jobs."

"Tim was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is a true craftsman and incredibly skilled. He took time to understand my vision and exceeded my expectations with the results. He is extremely neat, detailed and talented. Not to mention he is kind and patient. He is trustworthy and always on time. He is very passionate about his craft and takes great pride in doing a perfect job. He is fun to collaborate with and I felt very confident in trusting him to make some artistic decisions. The mantle he made for the fireplace is absolutely beautiful. I really lucked out finding Tim and Smith Woodworking. I strongly recommend him."

"Rodolfo Palmas does it all. I needed a handyman to help me put my house back together after the hurricane. My sons room was priority for me since he had no drywall or ceiling in his room. I reached out to him and he responded immediately and came to see me the next day. He gave me an estimate and understood that this was important to me. He started the job right away and kept coming to make sure he took care of his room. We would communicate and he let me know when he was coming and the time. He is caring and as a family man he understood that children comes first. My sons room looks awesome and I am very grateful to him. We will continue to communicate in order to keep fixing my house at a pace that works for me and my husband. I have an entire house to fix but my heart is happy because he helped me take care of my son. God bless him and his family. I would definitely hire him for my future projects."

"TERRIFIC!! Obet is a brilliant, intuitive handyman. That means, unlike me, he can repair, put together, ANYTHING! He is professional, respectful, prompt, and kind. I hired a shade vendor who did not measure ANYTHING correctly. Obet put all the shades and correct brackets where they 'should' have been. He never charges enough for his incredible and high-quality hard work. He repaired metal hinges on an Andersen screen door that an overzealous property manager swung open too far and bent. Obet Falcon is a SUPER handyman because I think he can repair or build Obet Falcon is an incredibly handyman because I believe he can repair or build anything! He’s like Superman! In the past five years, I’ve encountered the best quality and most honest businessman in Naples, and that’s Obet Falcon."

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.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

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.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
