"I would hire this contractor again. The quality of the work was excellent. The most important aspect of this job was the communications with the contractor concerning changes to the work scope and schedule. I plan to use this contractor for future projects. It is refreshing to work with someone that has godly principles incorporated in their business model."

"Bryan completed a partial kitchen remodel in our 155-year-old house, and my wife and I are very pleased with the results, and with the entire process. As an architect, I know from experience that it's incredibly difficult to find a contractor who has fair prices, does quality work, communicates clearly, AND works with subcontractors who are equally capable and professional. Thankfully we found that person in Bryan. We would gladly hire him again (in fact, we've already hired him for additional work!) and would absolutely recommend him to others."

"Finishing our basement with Remark Construction was a great experience. They made the process easy and they were able to work within our budget. Chris, Jeff, Carlos and Alan were very skilled, professional, courteous and gave updates regularly. The craftsmanship was top notch and it was great working with them. We hope to work with them again on future projects and will continue to recommend them to family and friends."

"Tim (owner) was great to work with—professional, responsive, and very kind throughout the entire process. Jeff, the handyman who handled our plumbing, electrical, and general contractor work, was also fantastic. He was knowledgeable, easy to work with, and did excellent work. We’re very happy with the service and will definitely use them again in the future. Pricing was fair and much lower than other quotes. Highly recommend!"

"Brad and his team were exceptional! Every step involved in the process of hiring Brad to the follow-up was done with the utmost care and professionalism. He returned my call the very same day, came out the next day to look at the job scope, provided a quote the same evening. Upon hiring Brad, he started the work within a week. He showed up at my home on time, ready to work! They worked through the entire day without breaks! Worked under tarps in pouring rain, rather than creating more dust inside our home. We needed the job done quickly and he achieved that! 500 SF flooded basement, vinyl torn out and completed in 10 hours! And done beautifully! I would not hesitate to use Brad again for another job! A+++ rating!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

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.

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.

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.

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.
