"Selecting JB Construction to improve my home is a decision I'm very satisfied with, and that's coming from a discerning customer who expects things to be done right. After thinking about a remodel for a number of years, I finally got started by interviewing a number of contractors. The idea of updating your house is fun, of course, but there also was some trepidation about making the right choice since the project was going to be a significant commitment of time and money. After choosing JB Construction, Joe and his team really made the process as smooth as possible. They were professional and courteous and kept me updated on the work and next steps all along the way. They cleaned up the house daily after working, and they quickly made things right if I requested any changes or minor fixes. Their workmanship was terrific, the project on time and on budget, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results -- kitchen, dining room, family room, and hallway all brought out of the 80s and 90s into 2018. Thanks, Joe!"

"Randy was just awesome! He was very knowledgeable and very kind. I called him around 10 am after having a new refrigerator delivered. I explained that I needed some help with the water line that connects to the ice maker/water dispenser. He explained over the phone what likely needed to happen and then told me that he would get back with me in a couple of hours. I gave him my address and info and sure enough--2 hours later he comes, takes a look at what I need done, went to the hardware store, and bought what was needed. He then came back and installed everything and spent a good deal of time talking to me about installing our gutters. He's very friendly and I would not hesitate to call him again if we need work done on our house or remodeling. The quality of service we received definitely exceeded the price we paid to hire him. Randy, if you see this, thanks again very much for all of your help today!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.
