"Artie was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable in a vast array of services. Artie worked for me for over 7 years preforming tasks that varied from converting a small shed to a luxury air bnb, remodeling apartment buildings, restructuring and replacing a large porch, installing washer and dryers as well as dishwashers, and various small home projects. Artie was always punctual and reliable. He completed all jobs in a timely and effective manner. He also fixed projects that were done improperly by other contractors. I also found him to be cost effective in every way. Saving myself time, money, and energy upon every job that I hired him for. Artie still works for me to this day. Heâ s my go to for just about anything and everything!"

"Mike was awesome! He went above and beyond. He met me to pick out an exterior door, delivered it and installed. The whole frame needed repair and he fixed it beautifully. He was here when he said he would be and he is reasonably priced. I hired him for other work as well and, again, is doing a great job!!"

Customers say: True professional

"I called Brian to get an estimate on my motherâ s deck railing repair and received a call back within minutes. Brian took the time to schedule an onsite meeting and provided her with a fair estimate and date to start the work. He began the work on time, as scheduled, and provided her with his expert finish carpenter named Josh. Josh completed the railings and replaced the deteriorated steps in a professional and expertise manner. We highly recommend Brian and his crews for any deck and railings repairs. They did such an excellent job that my mother also had him do a total remodel of her bathroom, which has just been completed. Brian offered suggestions for the remodel, which she went with and is extremely satisfied with the finished product. We highly recommend Brian Morris for all your Deck, Bathroom, and ANY remodeling needs. He is an honest and trustworthy Craftsman, which is hard to find these days. We look forward to having Brian work on our next project very soon."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

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.
