"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."

The craftsmanship and attention to detail were outstanding. The team was professional and easy to work with, and the final result exceeded our expectations. Great contractor to work with. Highly recommend!"

"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!"

"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!"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

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.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

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.
