"I recently hired Masters Interior Carpentry to redo the flooring in my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, their team was professional, detail-oriented, and extremely skilled. They helped me choose the perfect flooring that matched my style and needs, and the installation process was smooth and efficient. The craftsmanship is outstanding – the floors look absolutely stunning and have transformed the entire space! They were also very respectful of my home, leaving everything clean and tidy at the end of each day. I highly recommend Masters Interior Carpentry to anyone looking for quality carpentry work done right. Five stars all the way!"

"I had the interior of my house painted and new carpet installed in 3 bedrooms. The carpet installers were excellent! Very precise and hard working. They moved out all the heavy furniture and put it all back in place when finished. Work was done in 3 hours. The painters did a great job! They were very nice men. I had one area that I wasn't really pleased with and Steve had Maricio come back a few days later and fix it at no extra charge. It looks fantastic now."

"Working with Steve and his crew has been an absolute pleasure! They came out immediately and gave us a more than fair estimate for the work we needed. Along the way, Steve and his crew discovered other "problems" with our aging deck and pointed everything out to us and fixed our deck, adding a beautiful paint job. They were so conscientious, considerate and their work was impeccable! We were so impressed with their work ethic, kindness, genuine concern about our deck project, and their attention to every detail! We actually kind of miss having them around! Great group of guys! We plan on hiring them again whenever we have another building or painting project! God Bless these guys! Hire them, you will be so glad you did!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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.

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.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors.
