"Moses was great! He exceeded my expectations in staining and sealing my deck. Shows up when he says he will. He offered to do additional touch ups at not additional charge. It's great to have someone with that kind of work ethic. I highly recommend MJ Remodeling and Carpentry. He also knows a lot of other highly qualified handyman if you have something around the house that needs a qualified handyman. His prices are very reasonable."

"I was looking for a handyman who could fix my shower door where all that was needed was the pivoting hardware. After being told by another guy who had looked at it and told me I would just have to replace it and the labor was going to be around $850 and I would have to buy the door for another $250. Kris listened and understood. He used what hardware that was there and he had it back up and working in just a few minutes! If you’re looking for a true handyman, look no further. I look forward to using him in the future to do other repairs. He’s also a very nice fellow."

"Brandon and Will are above the rest. They are dependable, timely and experts in their craft. When you reach out to them they actually respond in a timely manner! They were both a joy to have in our house doing work and easy to talk to, both about the project and small talk. Brandon and Will never made me feel stupid for my questions or ideas for a project. They always talked through the details and tried to give me multiple price points for my ideas. We have hired them multiple times for new lighting fixtures, repairing cabinets, ceilings and more. You will not regret hiring them."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

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.
