"We needed a deck replaced. Spinner Construction LLC was the answer. The price fit my budget, the time frame from starting to finish was very impressive (for a work crew of two), and the workmanship was impeccable. I highly recommend Spinner Constrution LLC for your building project."

"John Tanner has done 4 projects for us to date and we are hiring him later to do a fifth project. The first one he did for us was to repair the drywall in a corner of our master bedroom and then make and install shelving. The second was to install a small shelf for laundry supplies. The third was to install oar locks in an aluminum boat we had purchased, and the fourth was to assemble a large and unusual cat tree, the instructions for which completely baffled me! John is always prompt, courteous, and no job is seemingly too small, which is unusual for most handyman services. A bonus if you have pets: he is an animal lover, and always takes the time to greet our cats!"

"Tyler did a great job with some custom carpentry work for us, installing windows, hanging a door, tiling and painting a bonus room. He also built a special table for our daughter use while she is recovering from major hip surgery. The craftsmanship is outstanding and it has been a lifesaver in her recovery process. Tyler is as skilled as he is compassionate and we can’t say enough about the work he has done for us."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

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.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
