"I needed a bulkhead changed to a walk in door. He showed up at 7:30 am with 2 other carpenters. They were packed up completely done by 2:30 pm. Flavio is very professional as well as his workers. Very respectful. They took all old wood and scraps away. They call what I wanted a dog coop. I love my new entry. I waited for it to rain before writing this. Not a drip of rain inside. I will not hesitate to have Flavio do any other carpentry work I need. His prices are very competitive. I'm very satisfied with his work and would recommend him."

"Carpentry crew from Melvins was super easy to work with. They arrived on time for work estimate and for both days of work on the gutters. Repairs came out great and the prices were very reasonable. Would hire again for any carpentry work."

"I originally was hiring Harrop and Son for framing work but learned that he did other home improvements so also hire him to complete vinyl siding including trim work on a very old home that I recently purchased. Tom and his crew's work was so good that I hire him to remodel the kitchen, again his work was very good. He completed other work, baseboard, installing doors and windows, repairing the roof, installing sheetrock. All work was completed in a timely manner and very professional at a fair price. I will be calling Tom for future projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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

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.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.
