Customers say: Quick response

"He was so polite and started the day I hired him, he changed clothes cam back with a van and it was on. He actually went beyond what I wanted, I simply forgot about walls that need repair, but I'm glad he did them. Our house is definitely ready to go on the market."

"Excellent work, professional, punctual and very friendly. Purchase and installation of large dog door in wall plus made a platform for ease of entering and existing for my short legged fur babies. Will definitely use again for future projects. We (Ellie, Pascal and me) sure appreciate your great work. Thanks again."

"Anthony was very quick to respond, worked up the estimate quickly and was easy to communicate with. He was building a fence for us and the weather was not cooperating (lots of rain). He gave me daily updates on what to expect and he was a delight to work with. The fence he built is quality and beautiful! Excellent job. Will be hiring him again!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

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.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
