"Chris and crew arrived on time daily. They were professional and meticulous. All of the old decking was removed and hauled away. They were clean and neat and did not make a mess. Our deck feels solid, no more rotted and wobbly boards. Our project was completed quickly (3 days/1 day removal of old decking/2 days of repair/rebuild). I highly recommend Eden Landscaping."

"Charlie is friendly, easy to talk to, professional, meticulous, and methodical. He rescued our deck from the mess it was originally. He made the best of a VERY poorly executed initial build (we FIRED original guy and crews)! Would love to see what he could do as a new build."

"Mendez Construction Company did an absolutely phenomenal job building our horizontal fence. It turned out stunning and completely exceeded our expectations. The work was done quickly, on time, and with great attention to detail. Santo was incredibly easy to work with, communicative throughout the entire process, and offered fair, transparent pricing. What truly stood out was their dedication. They worked through tough winter conditions to make sure the project was completed by the deadline, and that level of commitment is rare and greatly appreciated. Santo does so much more than fencing, and after this experience, I plan to use Mendez Construction for all of my future household projects. If you’re looking for quality craftsmanship, reliability, and a team that genuinely cares about their work, I highly recommend Mendez Construction Company."

"My original kitchen installer quit early on the job because he said the kitchen cabinets were too difficult to install. Pieces were spralled out on the floor - I was distraught. I hired Castillo handyman services and he came in and saved the day. I'm not sure how he figured out how to put that kitchen together, but he did and in record time. I also noticed he's very very detail oriented and made sure all of the cabinets were level in my lopsided house. Additionally, I asked him to completely re-do the island which wasn't apart of the original job description - he was able to build a really nice island to allow flushed waterfall countertops. I highly recommend!!"

"It was a pleasure to work with Ryan in the scheduling and construction of the pergola. Ryan was able to get us in very quickly, and work around our schedule when we ran into some last minute issues. He was great with communication and would always double check before going further. The attention to detail was great, and after we had a chance to look over everything he came back to make sure it was all up to par. He would listen to what you wanted, and make suggestions based off of experience along the way, which is what I look for in a construction specialist. I will for sure be calling him when I need things done around the house. Would recommend to friends and family."

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.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

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.

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.
