"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."

"He helped us install a French door, open a wall to the kitchen, add framing, and reinforce our basement joists. He is professional, skilled, and reliable, with excellent carpentry expertise. He is also honest about what he can offer and upfront about areas outside his scope of interest or expertise. I strongly recommend him."

"Mike's crew arrived when they said they would. Their workmanship was outstanding, as was their work ethic. They were accommodating, very respectful of my property, and thoroughly cleaned up when done. It did not hurt that the crew was friendly and very personable."

"Joe showed up on time and was very knowledgeable. He helped myself and my partner remove a huge kitchen worth of cabinetry with the purpose to be reinstalled at another property. He brought all the necessary tools, was friendly, and professional. All of the cabinets were removed carefully and without damage. I would absolutely hire him again. I might even ask him to come out to Buffalo to help me reinstall the cabinets once I get them refinished! He went above and beyond for our project and we're so grateful. I would encourage you to hire Joe - you won't be disappointed."

"This is my second time using TedWen and couldnâ t be more pleased to have a professional that I can trust. I had an exterior door installed and made fit into what would have been for a custom fit door. TedWen improvised and problem solved on the spot to safe me a significant amount of money not having to buy a custom size door. This was a tricky install that was done perfectly. I couldnâ t be happier with with the finished product."

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.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.
