"He promotes himself as a 30 year union carpenter. His workmanship and customer service was poor. He was to install & paint new hardwood slab interior doors (bedroom, closet, sliding, louver, doors,), Remove a built in cabinet and build a linen closet, install new baseboards and boot throughout living room, hall, 2 bedrooms and dining room. He subcontracted the painting out, who damaged my floor, he subcontracted the door installs out, doors didn?t close and was cut crooked, trim ends were not finished off, he pieced in baseboards in some areas, even though I bought long enough lengths for on one wall needed a joint piece. Every time I would bring a complaint to him, he would always say ?I?m not done yet.? But move on to another project. When I would let him know that it is taking longer than he said, he would say, I got guys coming and nobody came. After 1/2-2/3 of the way done, I fired him. In my opinion, he is an inexperienced handyman. The is nothing ?skilled? about his work."

"He is a thief, a liar, and a con artist. He was hired for a kitchen remodel that was going to cost over $30,000, and I gave him a $12,500 deposit to start within two weeks. He resulted in a lot of 'no-calls, no-shows,' so I requested my money back since he broke the contract by not starting on the agreed date. I asked for a full refund of my deposit in October. It is now the end of December, and I have not heard from him—despite many promises since October that he would return my money."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes wall damage, but some holes for anchors or brackets are necessary for secure attachment. These can be easily patched if the bed is removed in the future, leaving your walls looking like new. Hiring a professional Murphy bed installer helps ensure minimal and repairable impact.

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

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.
