"Great friendly service, will definitely rehire for additional work. Would recommend to anyone needing a routine or odd end job. My mama moved up from Florida from a first floor entry to a home in Leland Nc. She is wheelchair bound and needed a ramp built to match the height of the stairs the length of the ramp wasnâ t an easy task to handle alone without experience. After a few quotes, Kyle worked with me and my budget to help get the ramp built and bring joy our lives. Thanks again Kyle, you rock!"

"I have never been more pleased with a contractor in all the years I have owned a home. Corky was very professional & from the first meeting he has been totally cooperative and professional. The staff was very helpful and went out of their way to make sure we got a totally professional job done in a punctual timeframe. I am planning to use Corky for some additional work including painting the entire interior of the house. The quality of the work is excellent and he deserves a very high rating."

"My husband is no longer able to do the maintenance on our house, or advise me. There was rotting trim wood, that needed to be replaced, at the roofline of our house. I contacted Angie on a Sunday nite. The next day owner Roland called me, we met the next day. He was able to fit in the needed repairs 1 day later and take a piece of wood to the paint store to match the color. The result looks perfect!!"

"Jimmy was fantastic with his work and communication. I've had contractors + builders that could go days without communicating. Jimmy always got back in an appropriate amount of time. The work his team was fantastic. They converted our dining room to a home office and remodeled all three of our bathrooms."

Unfinished 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.

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.

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.

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.
