"Had HD carpentry repair my deck steps, and add a new handrail. Excellent work, decent prices, very polite. Cleanup was immaculate. I would give them 10 stars if I could. I would definitely recommend them and I look forward to calling them again."

"I had an excellent experience working with ZVL on my basement remodel. Ivan and his team were outstanding from start to finish. Communication was always clear and timely, and the entire project stayed within the budget outlined in the original proposal, which is rare and greatly appreciated. Ivan did a great job walking me through each phase of the project, offering thoughtful options and practical suggestions along the way. He truly listened to what I wanted and helped refine the ideas into something even better than I originally envisioned. In the end, he and his team brought the concept to life exactly as promised. I would absolutely recommend ZVL to anyone looking for a reliable, professional contractor who takes pride in their work and delivers on what they say they will do."

"Very professional job stairs were done to code I was also impressed with their solution for a post coming down in a parking lot. They put it at an angle into the building with a go plate at the bottom, anchoring it in my hand fence came out gorgeous. They were timely and very clean about the job I appreciate their work. The job was well done."

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.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

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.
