"Our pro, Fred, worked around the inclement weather to tear down an old deck and build a beautiful, structurally sound replacement. He provided great customer service along with an extensive knowledge of deck building. He also went above and beyond in communicating the steps of the process and listened closely for feedback. My family and I look forward to using his services for future home improvements."

"Fantastic! My dad was an artist and painted 16 tiles for a mural. He passed about 8 years ago and we found the mural in the basement of his house when cleaning it out. Tandem trades constructed a frame and figured a way to hang the mural. I'll be as short as possible: If you need work done, hire this company. You would be crazy not to. Price was VERY reasonable. He was a delight to deal with and the work was way way beyond anything I could have imagined."

"Matt is fantastic! I hired him to do some carpentry work. I know nothing about such things, and he made sure to explain everything—what he recommended, different things he could do, why he was doing certain things—and he included me in every step of the process. In addition, he is very responsive and communicates really well and PROMPTLY! He takes his work seriously, and it shows. I’ll definitely be hiring him again, and I highly recommend him!"

"MH Contracting is my number one choice for any type of plumbing work. First, their Veteran owned and that means a lot! Equally important is that they perform the highest quality work. They're, organized, responsive, respectful, professional, courteous, get the work completed the first time and they clean up after themselves. They truly take care of the customer. I first met them through a general contractor who signed on to do a large remodel project for me that included the complete rearranging of all second floor plumbing. They were impressive during the remodel and because of that, I've used them for all my plumbing work ever since! They're fantastic and won't disappoint!"

"We hired Sutter Home Solutions to build a deck for our house. We were blown away by their professionalism, customer service, quality of work and affordability. This is a small, family operated business and working directly with the person/people who are doing the work is a huge plus. We couldn t be happier and will never look elsewhere for any future home improvement needs."

"We love our new shed! We hired Tittel Construction to build a custom shed on the site of our previous shed. The concrete pad was there already but has a definite slope from a previous tree growing too close. Connor was able to not only build a great shed, but also make it level on a sloped foundation! He was very patient and helped me design, through Pinterest pics and my rough drawings, the perfect shed including 10 reclaimed windows. I’d highly recommend Tittel Construction."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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.
