"David and his team did a wonderful job building my deck and pergola as well as replacing a step on my front porch and adding railings. Their work is wonderful and they completed the work when they said they would. I highly recommend them and I will be hiring them again to seal the deck."

"I got 2 quotes thru "Angi" to have a 12 X 25 foot porch with ramp made. The quote from Handyman419,LLC was less expensive, but that alone was not the deciding factor. The owner, Mark Clark was reassuring with his calm confidence, experience and knowledge base-I appreciated these things as I have never hired anyone to build anything for me. Mark has a small but skilled crew who are very conscientious and respectful of the owners wishes and concerns. Brian, Jonah, Michelle and Mark were all pleasant people to be around and experienced at what they do-which was building a safe and well constructed porch. They are very conscious of details and precise. I am very happy with my beautiful porch! I love the composite decking material which was a perfect match to my house, it has such a nice finished look and is safe for my husband to walk on. I highly recommend working with Handyman419 LLC,they are good people who take care of their customers and do skilled work at a reasonable price."

"I used their landscaping and their handyman services.I am very pleased with both and continue using them year over year. I use them to trim my bushes, spring and fall cleanups and plant ornamental plants when required and to do the edging and mulch replacement. Their attention to detail is excellent and their prices are very affordable. For home repairs I used them for a soffit replacement, installation of a garden light pole, replacement of damaged siding and gutter repairs, all done above professional level. All in all I no longer use anyone else."

"I had Cozzys power wash my business building and they did such a phenomenal job, I had him do my home, and my mom’s home! I have referred Cozzys to many friends and family, and will continue to do so. They do an excellent job, communicate, well, are extremely conscientious, friendly, honest and hard-working! I highly recommend Cozzys!"

"They were very polite, kept us informed every step of the way, did everything just the way they said they would. This was a garage job and it looks beautiful now - the cabinets are gorgeous and everything is neat and has it's own place. I was even able to bring some things out of our upstairs storage and store it in the cabinets."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

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