"I was very pleased with G&B carpentry, very professional, work completed as promised. Kitchen looks amazing, the detail of the ceilings is my favorite part. I would definitely hire G&B again for my next home improvement project!"

"Re-stained our porch, two chairs, table, and pieces for a trellis. Built a hand rail down from porch and stained. Re-screened entire porch. Very happy with all the work that was done and at a very good price."

"This company was so fast to get me a quote. Communicated throughout the entire process but most of all did a GREAT job. They came back a second time to repair the fence doors as well. I wish I had contracted them initially to install the fence around my property! Thank you to the team!"

"Responsive, communicative, helpful team! Wr enjoyed working with Collin and Mary. The sunroom looks great! SBC wasnâ t the cheapest, but you get what you pay for, and we wanted someone whoâ d do a nice job. They did! I wish the crews wouldâ ve cleaned up after themselves more (trash; caulk on windows), but that seems to happen with every home project. Will hire SBC again for future house projects."

"Professional workmanship, ethical experience-based evaluation, exceptional customer service. Evans LLC, Inc. quickly responded to our request on “Angie’s” and asked for photos. Within 48hrs. a project manager arrived, patiently discussed our needs/concerns and made recommendations. He left us with a chart to select a paint colors. Our deck was restored using new wood in affected areas rather than totally replaced as some companies had suggested. Water damage on the bottom of an entry door frame was repaired rather than replaced. Kudos to Evan’s expert carpenter/painter. Our gutters and garage door glowed after pressure washing rather than painting. We decided to repaint our front porch railings and columns; a few years ago a previous painter did a poor job. We are pleased by our exceptional experience with Evans LLC, Inc. and are eager to “pass the word” to our family and friends."

"Rich did a welding job for me on a metal chair. He was easy to talk to at the beginning and end of the job. While he had my chair, there was a delay in getting it done due to him not having the right tool with him. Once I told him that I was disappointed by the delay, he said that he misunderstood the time frame and then worked to make it right. So just make sure to be clear on the time expectation and you should be fine. Good handiwork!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

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.
