"Overall I was very happy with Frank and his team from GMZ Contracting. They showed up when they were supposed to, were friendly and respectful and did beautiful work. They installed knotty pine in my bedroom and did the flooring for the upstairs bedroom."

"As you know, it is almost impossible to find a reliable and ethical contractor. Cory was fantastic in returning phone calls, showing up on time and his finish work was impeccable. You would be very wise to retain Corys services."

"Kenny is fantastic- super friendly, level headed, and considerate. We hired him to remodel a barn into a live/ work space. The barn pretty much needed to be rebuilt from the structural framing all the way to the siding. Kenny and his team are super efficient, they show up on time and deliver a beautiful product. Kenny helped us to cost engineer our project into phases so that we could know what we could afford to get done and finance accordingly. He has been such a pleasure to work with."

"We hired RP FAM LLC this past summer to remodel our kitchen, bathroom, and hardwood floors, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Leo and Carlos were professional, trustworthy, and detail-oriented. Their honesty and integrity gave us total peace of mind, and their quality of work exceeded our expectations. We started with a bathroom remodel, loved their work, and ended up doing the kitchen and most of our hardwood floors too. Everything turned out beautiful! We’re already planning for them to come back in the spring to rebuild our three-tier deck. Highly recommend RP FAM LLC for anyone looking for reliable, skilled, and honest contractors."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.

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.

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.
