"I ordered a Murphy bed from Wayfair that was far more difficult for me to assemble than I thought. Jehu Solis provided a reasonable bid, arrived on time, worked diligently, and, most importantly, did a fantastic job. I would rehire him again."

"I could not be happier with the final product! The first pic is the old bathroom from the 60s when the house was built. The rest are the final rebuild and it looks great. I would highly recommend VMK Remodeling for any project that you might have. I am also going to get a bid on redoing the deck on the back of the house as Vince's company does decks as well! Thanks to his great crew as well, great people to work with."

"I hired Mighty Contractor company to repair a rotten soffit on my home, which several other contractors had turned down because it required rebuilding the wooden guttering around my front porch, also. Not only did Mighty Contractor do excellent work on the job, but his price was comparable to what other contractors had estimated to simply repair the soffit without fixing the underlying problem with the guttering.
He was also able to repair the stairs to my deck, which were in danger of collapsing this winter. He did an excellent job and now I have very sturdy steps to my deck, which should last me for years. He also reinforced the boards where the stairs join the edge of my deck, which was not in his original estimate but did not seem to alter the price.
I give Mighty Contractor my highest recommendation and I will be contacting him again in the spring to carry out further repairs to my property."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

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.

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.
