"M&K Remodeling did an excellent job finishing our basement. From start to finish, their team was professional, reliable, and efficient. They provided clear communication throughout the project, ensuring that we understood the timeline, costs, and any potential changes. The quality of their work was top-notch, with attention to detail in every aspect of the renovation. They completed the project on time, and our basement now looks fantastic – perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. I highly recommend M&K Remodeling for any home renovation projects."

"Juan did a fantastic job helping me yesterday. I had just moved into town Monday. I really needed someone to handle without a lot of oversight. He brought his own tools and did a great job. He cleaned up at the end. I will definitely used him again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
