"Ok, so I'm back again with another review for John Carenzo. Since I left the last one, we've had John back a couple of times, for work on our lake cabin in Westhampton, and more recently to work on the outside of our hime in Florence. Two words: Hire him! John does great work. I should know, as he's done all sorts of projects for us, from laying flooring, to painting, to deck repair, to hanging blinds, to replacing shutters, to fixing gutter problems, to replacing wooden steps... He will soon re-face our front steps with brick, repair our backyard shed and build new frames for our pack porch screens. John can do just about anything---and do it in a creative and professional manner. The bonus is that he's also a nice guy to work with. THAT goes a long way, as well. So......Hire him!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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