"Chris and his employees are great! They arrived on time and began the various projects. They were courteous and professional. Any question that I had was explained and they showed me how to maintain my home. I hired them for electrical and some outdoor projects. They cleaned their areas even better than what I had. I am extremely happy as to the work that was completed. I am planning to hire them again for future projects"

"Deck Works, LLC did an excellent job for me. I needed an outdoor fence repair, and after finding them on Angie’s List, they called me right away and came out promptly to assess the project. They explained the repair clearly, and the cost was very reasonable. The work was completed exactly as promised, and I couldn’t have been happier with the results. A few days later, a tree limb fell during a storm, so I contacted them again to see if they could remove it. They came out the very next day and took care of it. I really appreciate their quick response, professionalism, and willingness to help. I would highly recommend Deck Works, LLC."

"John was very responsive in providing the estimate and answering questions I had. He finished the deck project within the timeline he had promised. He even came back to fix a small area that had been damaged by one our our dogs. I would definitely hire John again."

"The job wasn’t just done right, it was perfect. Chip took his time and did good quality work on a new pocket door in our hallway that we wanted for years. There was an old open swing door that went to our basement in a very narrow hallway and it was a nuisance. The new pocket door looks outstanding. Chip did a full install of the door with new finished drywall and added all new baseboards and casing. I highly recommend Random Remodeling. Posting before and after photos."

"Found these guys on Angis and asked for a quote on a metal roof and gutters. This was the only contractor to get back to us within the week. Their sales rep Andy Leach came out and was very professional and we could tell by the way we he spoke with us that he takes a lot of pride in his work and his company. We decide to use them based on this and the fact that they use higher end materials and offer a great lifetime warranty. It was a quick and efficient process. They came out to start our metal roof in under 2 weeks and was done in just a few of days with the roof and the 6 inch gutters we had them install. The project Caleb, stayed in contact with us and made sure to iron out a few issues and took care of the cleanup for us. Great company, good people. Would recommend them to anyone who asks."

"Excellent ‐ I currently live in a house that TrokStar Construction completely gutted and rebuilt. Neighbors often will stop by saying they can't believe it's the same house. The interior came out stunning ‐ I especially enjoy the modern kitchen and bathroom. The highlight though is probably the handed crafted fireplace mantle and frame. I would highly recommend TrokStar for any construction project, big or small."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

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