"Mr. Bergen's team of carpenters and painters arrived on time and completed all work within two days: one day to repair and another day to paint. They did excellent work and left no mess behind.
It is refreshing to find a contractor like Mr. Bergen, who has a keen eye not only for existing problems, but for ways to prevent their recurrence in the future. Mr. Bergen and his team were completely professional in all the work that they did.
Mr. Bergen was not the lowest cost contractor, but his work was fairly priced. We will happily use him for future work on our home.

"Garth was absolutely wonderful to work with! He arrived exactly when he said he would, and was very commutative. He was the only one who could find the shelf hardware that we needed for our older shelves in our pantry, and completed the job very efficiently. We needed to have the job done in a short time frame, and he was so good to fit us into his busy schedule asap. We will definitely be calling upon Garth for future house projects!!"

"I had my siding replaced with HGE. The crew was fantastic, couldn't ask for no better. Jon and Matthew were my project managers for the process and installation. They were very good listeners for all questions and concerns throughout the process which I greatly appreciated. Overall I am very happy with the outcome of the siding and the job they did. If you want quality work and workers that care about what they are doing, I would highly recommend HGE to anyone!"

"Overall it was excellent! The quote was fair, all the workers were fantastic and worked really hard - even when changes needed to be made on the spot. This is a creative company and they will find a way to make things work. Especially like that they have experience in everything from re-doing floors to redesigning cabinet layouts, painting, tiling, etc. One-stop shop for sure."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

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.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.
