"James is a highly skilled carpenter. He has a tremendous work ethic and demonstrated integrity and professionalism. He quickly understood our project which was to build a small deck in front of a new shed with ramp and step access and a bridge over a dry creek. We are very satisfied with all aspects of his work."

"Nate does fantastic work. He has a unique method of repairing and replacing porch and window screen with custom built frames. He has excellent attention to detail with caulking and painting. I would use Nate for much more than screens. His price was also very fair, and he is prompt to respond and follows his schedule commitments."

"Hunter and Jared were amazing. They assembled a dresser and a trundle bed both very heavy. The dresser had a zillion pieces. They worked hard. Were very personable and did a great job. They even cleaned up after and took all the shipping boxes with them. Highly recommend!"

"Javier and his team with Eagle really build me a great deck on a difficult foundation. Their communication, quality of construction, and cleanup were very professional and much appreciated. The Work was done in a timely manner. I have worked with quite a few contractors as of late and there are very few who are reliable, responsible and take pride in what they do here in the north Georgia area! Highly recommended!"

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.

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.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.
