"We had the pleasure of working with Farzad on our recent home remodel, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, he was professional, attentive, and truly dedicated to bringing our vision to life. His craftsmanship and attention to detail are exceptional. Farzad went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of the project was completed to my satisfaction. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and talented contractor!"

Customers say: Quality work

"James (Jarco owner) is very knowledgeable and experienced in construction and in working with the county. His knowledge was critical in the approval process for my large 25 ft span carport which meant no headaches for me. He is very good at communicating with the customer and taking customer concerns/questions seriously. I appreciate his benchmark/payment structure that incentivizes progress. The work progressed at a good pace, although some bad weather held up a subcontractor later in the project. He interfaced with the engineers appropriately which resulted in an upgrade from the initial design (at no additional cost). My carport has been complimented by several people for its appearance and construction, including a framer (who did not work on it) and a home inspector. I can definitely recommend Jarco."

"Very seldom do the results from a contractor exceed expectations, but Shawn's performance in renovating this house exceeded mine.  The highest contractor estimate was 50% higher than Shawn's and the other estimate was 22% higher. And the best part, the finished project cost was 17% under his estimate.   The estimated time frame from all contractors was expected to be 6-8 weeks depending on the condition of the underflooring.  From the date I gave Shawn keys to the house to the day he returned the keys for the new locks was 30 days. Shawn is very easy to work with and will do what you want to do. His experience makes him an excellent advisor on material selection and he is very competent in scheduling and managing materials, subcontractors, and his own employees. I will definitely use Shawn's services as a general contractor again."

"I was very impressed with the professionalism and knowledge of both the owner and the person working for him. They were very meticulous and went the extra mile to make sure I was happy with the final product. The product I purchased was essentially one of a kind and very few people in the state have it due to them being the only distributor in Southern California. Many Christmas seasons I was up on the roof putting up lights and having to take them down over and over again. This last Christmas I almost fell out the roof and I realized that it was no longer worth it. With the perminent lights I never have to worry about being on the roof ever again. The owner of the company Roger is an electrical engineer and a contractor and is very knowledgeable and meticulous. I would recommend his services to anyone"

"Eric added a full bath where there was previously an unused bonus room/office. He raised the floor approximately a foot to allow for plumbing and connections (since the old floor was concrete). Also, he some plumbing and electrical work in the kitchen. I am thrilled with the way the new additions look. He did a fantastic job with the tile work, drywall, and all the electrical fixtures he installed. Unlike, many remodel companies, I didn't feel like he was "nickel and diming" me for every little things. He communicated effectively and was proactive on getting the job done.  Most important though, he fixed something that done incorrectly promptly and without hassle.  I appreciate that the most;  I feel a contractor is worthless if they won't stand behind their work.  No need to worry about that with this guy, as I have found.  I will use him again on our next upcoming project.-

"What a great experience.  Jeff showed up on time and provided a quick and professional evaluation.   He didn't try to push any unneeded repairs and told me straight out that I didn't require any of his services.  Jeff did provide me with some great tips on water proofing my home and solid references for some local contractors.  If you want the straight scoop, see Jeff first.

Unfinished 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.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.
