"C.G. Construction and Landscaping services were great. I would definitely recommend this company for all of you carpentry needs. I had an outlet and new lights installed by a previous company but they didnâ t fix the cuts in the ceiling and walls. They fix the walls and ceiling where it now it looks like nothing was disturbed after those installations. They also installed ceiling fans in six rooms and new light switches in two rooms. They also installed an over hood fan in our kitchen. Thank you for your services and see you on the next job. Quincy J."

"We had a wonderful experience with Fabian who replaced our shower and sink in the bathroom (as well as building BEAUTIFUL shelves) and he replaced our screen door. He was very flexible and accommodating to our needs. He made sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. No more worrying about finding a great contractor - we've found him!"

"Tassio and his crew were very professional abs discovered some big issues with a water problem we were having with the entire back side of my homes. He discovered rotted wood, damaged plywood, structural beams and even a bit of mold. There was a lot of work that needed to be done and he sent pictures throughout the process to show me what the issue was and how he fixed it. The only thing I wish we discussed more up front was the cost of the additional work as it was more than I had budgeted for and caught me a bit off guard. Nevertheless, the job was large and the workmanship was excellent, I would highly recommend Tassio to anyone with carpentry or exterior repair work!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.

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.
