"We had a huge home remodel, basically ripped off the second floor of our house and re-built it, and Memo handled it flawlessly. I will continue to use Memo for all my home improvement needs and recommend him to everyone. He can really handle it all: framing, windows, siding, roofing, bathroom remodel, flooring, drywall, electrical, plumbing/heating, painting, etc. They even built us a custom stairwell to fix our unsafe stairs. Thank you, Memo!"

"All work was completed expertly and in a timely manner. I would definitely use Jeff again. He emailed his estimate promptly, scheduled the work, and stayed with the project until it was completed. He was quick to respond to questions and took care of everything. His crew was hard-working and courteous. Jeff was on the jobsite. He re-configured the layout of a 1/2 bath and expanded the bathroom with new framing and wall and door, added a shower and a stacking washer/dryer. New vinyl flooring and moldings, high hats, and painting in bathroom and family room. New vanity, fan, grab bars, towel racks in bathroom."

Small jobs welcome

"The owner Steve is great! I am battling a mice problem and wanted to stop them from entering my home through various holes/gaps on the exterior. Due to the urgent nature of the situation, Steve was able to fit me into his busy schedule and sent handyman Joe within 2 days after I first reached out to his company. Joe was excellent, really a knowledgable guy with tremendous enthusiasm. He jumped on board immediately and got right to work filling in all the holes around the house and even located gaps on the facade and located a possible rodent nest my exterminator and I had not noticed before. The custom frame he built to cover the basement window vent is functional and also looks great! This was a major site identified by my exterminator where mice were entering, and I feel confident that now the area is secure. The entire job was completed in 3 hours with a side trip to Home Depot to gather materials. Even though tackling a mice infestation is not what this company usually does, they were able to accommodate me and exceeded my expectations! I will definitely hire them again and already am compiling a list of tasks around my house."

"Working with my ideas, John came up with the most unique, peaceful, well designed plan. His hand drawn ideas came to life better than expected. His care for detail, aesthetics, and workmanship were outstanding. His crew was meticulous, knowledgeable, and sensitive to my needs as the project progressed. The results are outstanding. A unique feature of the job is my L shaped, stone dog run behind the planting! . Here are some photos of my newly landscaped peaceful place. Thank you. Julie Tedeschi"

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.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

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.

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.
