"I was buying a new house, the home inspector had some questions about the attic joists and suggested I have a professional take a look at them. I needed it done quickly and I called three contractors. Matt from MMP was the only one that called me back the same day and agreed to come look at them the next day. He showed up on time, suggested a remedy and gave me an estimate. After buying the house I had him complete the work. It was done as promised in a very tight and dirty attic space, they cleaned up before leaving. I also chose Matt to replace my roof after getting three estimates. The crew did the complete job, chimney flashing, ice and water shield, small roof repair and venting channels in the attic. Clean up was great, no mess left in the yard. He was not the lowest estimate but all the work was done without any additional charges. I was very pleased with the results."

"I hired Jesse's company to repair violations in the building code. Jesse's employee was very punctual, professional and a very skilled tradesman. I noticed during the project that they took pride in their work, and always went the extra step to absolutely do everything right. This experience renewed my faith in some contractors. Anything and Everything will be my only phone call for any work around the house. Even his sub contractors were a reflection of his company. Talented and professional with competitive pricing."

"When you find a great contractor, don’t let them go. ;). I hired Tim to build a screen porch under my deck but added several projects as I recognized the high quality of work and attention to detail from his crew. In addition to the screen porch, they built a deck extension - so nice that I decided to have them replace the existing deck, installed a basement slider and replaced the door, installed a new fence and built a shed. Tim was responsive, open, honest and receptive of my requests and additions during the project. Great experience working with Tim and his crew: Dan, Brian, Eddie and Ben. Great job on all the work - I’ve received many compliments from neighbors and guests on the work you did! I can’t recommend Tim and his crew enough."

"I had such a great experience with P Jordan Construction! I needed some repairs done on my back porch, including replacing the stairs, fixing a rotting footboard under the door, and reconnecting the railings to the house. From start to finish, the process was smooth and stress-free. Parker communicated clearly, showed up on time, and had everything finished in just a couple of hours. On top of that, the pricing was more than reasonable. I really appreciate his professionalism and quality of work. I would highly recommend!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Steve Andrews Construction is everything you would want, hope for, and desire in a professional contractor. We hired Steve for a full kitchen/dining renovation (down to the studs and sub floor), tiling of a 3 season porch, and the replacement of 2 entryway doors. From our initial consultation Steve was on time, concise, reasonable, organized, thorough, and attentive to details. Qualities that persisted through out the 8 weeks of the project(s). Steve's quality of work, attention to detail and unwavering standards are of the highest regard, he is a true craftsman in his field. He was always on time, cleaned up after himself daily and kept all stock, supplies, tools, and equipment for the job neat and organized. I can say that my experience was remarkable, enjoyable, and 100% positive. If you are to go under contract with Steve Andrews Construction, you will have a contractor for life, as I do."

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.

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.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

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.
