"I would highly recommend hiring Fisher’s contracting! This was my first big remodeling project as a first time homeowner and the entire experience working with them was amazing! From the first consultation phone call I had with Tom, he listened to all of my ideas, was very patient with any requests and was incredibly flexible with my budget. At every step, he kept me updated on any delays or changes and sent me photos everyday so I could see progress. It was a great experience and I’m so happy with the results!"

"Extremely Happy with the job Stonebrook Building Services completed. The outside of the house looks great and my neighbors always compliment the workmanship. My bathrooms also turned out beautiful! I never could have made the design decisions without the help of John and his team. Ceramic work is precise and beautiful."

Iâ ve used him more for repairs but seeing his workmanship, Iâ d use him for renovations as well. I trust him in our house, heâ s always more than fair and honest."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

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.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.
