"Fine Construction did a terrific job of gut renovating a 1,900sf pre-war unit for my client who purchased the property. Client, and engineer, interviewed 3 contractors we recommended and chose Fine Construction. Project required a major re-design to add a 3rd a bedroom, flooring structure reinforcement, complete systems upgrades, kitchen, baths, millwork, detail finishing -- you name it they did it. Very pleased with the cost estimates, design advice and workmanship details. Processional service all along the way during months of work. Highly recommend Ciaran Strong and his team for any job, large or small. Contact me [email protected], Assoc. Broker, COMPASS"

"Al is very reliable. My Reno was complicated and involved some significant structural work. He was either on my job site every day or in touch with me by phone or text to keep me up to date on the work. This is not a guy who will go missing on you. Unlike others, he was great about making all required filings and getting all sign offs needed from the local Building department. He also worked very well with my architect. His carpenter, Louis, and his painter/plasterer, Johnathan were wonderful too. I would recommend him for future projects."

"Ernie personally supervised the work, recommended suppliers from where we could get the required materials, after sitting with us and discussing what the work would entail and what would be needed. He provided us with a written quote which we approved before the work commenced.Ernie knows all the local suppliers and they give good advice and a discount on purchases. As both my wife and I work it was not possible for anyone to be at home. No worries. We gave Ernie a set of keys and his men could thereby come and leave as required. This would only be possible if his men were totally trustworthy, and they are. By the time we returned home from work, the men had cleaned up and there was no inconvenience to us.Our completed bathroom exceeded all our expectations and is truly a thing of beauty. The same applies to the kitchen where the ceiling has been done so well that it is impossible to tell where the damage was. Similarly the kitchen floor was ripped up and relaid very competently. We would unhesitatingly recommend Ernie to anyone looking to get great work done speedily and efficiently to a high standard of quality. We are not including the cost because it depends on the scope of the work done. Ernie gives a written estimate so that the price can be agreed before the work commences"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

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.

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.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.
