"I would recommend (and already have several times) M Johnson contracting to anyone who is looking for honest, reliable, local contractors who do what they say their going to do, when they say they're going to do, with tremendous quality at a fair price. The remodeling project at my house presented significant structural as well as floor plan changes to our homes first floor and basement. While my wife and I had ideas on where we wanted certain things Matt and his team provided significant guidance on the planning and layout we were in need of. The quality of the finishing work was tremendous and Matt and his team met every deadline they committed to. Great contractor that I would recommend to anyone. Pete K"

"Incredibly versatile contractor. Able to accommodate everything we asked for including removing a load bearing wall, moving of electrical outlets and light switches, plumbing and flooring. They helped us completely change the look and feel of our space changing a cramped floor plan into a modern open plan bringing the whole space together. The owner Adam is incredibly knowledgeable, prompt and will work with you to meet your needs, even if you change your mind every day. Highly recommend for your next remodel and will use them again."

"It went great. Having to do several major repairs I’ve had to meet a handful of contractors, with our roof the first couple had less knowledge tried to talk us into replacing the whole thing for a small fortune. Jason took a look at it and eased our worry by explaining it could be repaired and gave us a really fair price that we were ecstatic about after originally thinking it was a lost cause. With Jadon I was kept in the loop the entire time. Very good communication. The work was done quick and to the highest standard. Everything was cleaned up after. I would definitely hire Jason again and when other work comes up he will be our first call!"

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

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.
