"My experience with Jorge and his team was excellent from the first encounter. Jorge reviewed my highly detailed requirement lists and the architect drawings. He took the initiative to meet with the architect to clarify questions; managed all permitting needs; was extraordinarily attentive to the work of his team and all the subcontractors. He consulted with us when there were options to consider and provided a balanced assessment and recommendations. We have had experiences with 4 different general contractors over the past 15 years and found George's Construction to be the best experience with best pricing in this complex project of building a multi-function garage and entertainment space."

"Carlos was very professional and friendly. He provided quality construction of a new garage. He completed the work in a timely manor. When I made the final payment to him he told me to call him if I had any concerns or issues, which I believe is a mark of a quality company with integrity."

I grew up on a farm. I went to college. I have been a successful business owner for 6 years. Before starting my Contracting business I was a superintendent for a large glass company. I specialize in door and window installation/ replacement, bathroom remodeling, basement finishing, and demo/abatement work. Certified for Lead Abatement and swinging stage platform work. Have experience in project oversight, consulting, and good old labor. I enjoy design and engineering challenges, custom built and artistic projects but give the same attention to detail on the plain design jobs. I am probably too honest to get rich doing contract work, but i think that is something to be proud of. Im hardworking and resourceful making me a 1st choice for your next project.. I do consultation and oversight of many types of Contracting and construction jobs. My insight and experience across the board make me a valuable asset to customers who want the most for the money.

I have been in residential renovation for 10 years, working for contractors and real esate investors. I was financially able to start my own company 3 years ago buying run down houses in Louisville and flipping them, while still doing subcontract work for clients I used to work for. Now I have the financial freedom to help individual clients renovate their own homes which has been even more rewarding for me.\nI love what I do and I respect my clients homes as if they were my own. I take pride in doing high quality work at a very reasonable price. The biggest reason for the switch to individual home owners is seeing so many contractors gouging their clients and doing substandard work.\nI am still flipping houses as my main business so I am only taking on smaller renovation jobs at the moment. bathroom, kitchen, basement finishing, tile, flooring, small plumbing and electric jobs\ncall me for a free quote today

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

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.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
