"It went very well. The crew was efficient, hard working, skilled and personable. The owners answered my questions, were available by phone, responded promptly and did a nice cleanup job and checked in with me about the work before leaving. I’m pleased with the work and will contact them again if I need any other work done."

Customers say: Quick response

"I contacted Jared about repairing a roof gutter. We subsequently hired the firm that originally installed the gutter, but I want to comment on the service Jared gave us in the evaluation and research of our problem. We thought the original problem was a loose piece of flashing, but when Jared came over to look at the problem he told us it was really a part of the roof gutter that had come loose. Without being asked, he contacted several roofing contractors to see if they would do the job and when that did not pan out, he offered to do the job himself. We appreciate the time, effort and professionalism Jared demonstrated to solve our problem and will not hesitate to hire him for any other project in his repetoire."

"Ron and his crew were a godsend. I had been looking for a long time and was contacted thru Angi by R.N. Construction Co. Ron is a man of action and wasted no time in coming to my house to see the project that I needed done on my half bath with new laundry capability and also tiling my kitchen floor. The crew he has is very skilled and took on tasks with gusto. They were very flexible as no job isn't without needing to make adjustments. They went with the flow and the end product was excellent. I would recommend R.N. Construction Co. to anyone who is looking for a contractor."

"They arrived on time,  were professional and answered a lot of question.  It took about three hours and two people came to do this.  They left the area mostly clean.  They did leave some stickers on the windows that I had to pull off.  I would tell friends and family that they should research the price on windows to make sure they are not over paying."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.
