"Finishing our basement with Remark Construction was a great experience. They made the process easy and they were able to work within our budget. Chris, Jeff, Carlos and Alan were very skilled, professional, courteous and gave updates regularly. The craftsmanship was top notch and it was great working with them. We hope to work with them again on future projects and will continue to recommend them to family and friends."

"They were awesome. On time every day, very patience with us. They had recommendations that we liked. Reasonable priced compared to other contractors we sought out. We are doing a complete renovation of our kitchen and dining room and we are having them do it with no reservations."

"This was the most professional and efficient contractor I have ever worked with. My original contractor had fallen through, and I found Abe through a mutual contact. He was a life saver! I always manage to get myself into little home improvement projects when my husband is out of town and I royally messed up my dining and kitchen walls. In just two days Abe had the interior of the first floor of my house looking unrecognizable in the best way possible! I highly recommend using him for any home improvement needs!"

They were always communicating things with me along the way and answered all my questions. Love the work they did! Would highly recommend them for any home improvements!"

"Tim and his crew were a delight. He and his team repaired my wood floor and baseboards, a job that took extreme craftsmanship because the materials in my older home are no longer available. They came up with a solution and the finished job looked as if it was the original decor. Would I hire Tim and his crew again? You bet! I’m sending him a punch list of repairs with the reassurance that the job will be done with care and excellence. Thank you!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

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.

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.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.
