"Josh spends quality time before the project starts to make sure he understands what we wanted. We never felt rushed. During the project he continually checked in to make sure we were satisfied. And the final project shows his high level of detail! He is very careful and thorough! The deck looks amazing and is far more than we expected. He smoothed and sanded corners of handrails and all handrails. Beautiful work!"

"There are those rare and pleasant moments when you encounter a service provider and the only word you can come up with is WOW! These guys were great- on time, kind, personable, competent, capable and efficient. I?m new to the Ft. Wayne area and like I?m sure other transplants wonder if I will be lucky enough to find good help when I need it. The answer these guys gave by their actions is a resounding yes. They can rest assured when I am looking for help in the future, they will be the first to get the call from me."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

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.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

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.
