"In our residential/commercial condo building, getting service folks to communicate, do the job they agreed to and not break the bank are all challenges. Had our first job with CWG Construction today and couldn't be happier. Stan had great communication, was thoughtful about how to approach the job, went beyond what we had expected and did it for a competitive price that we felt was good value. In addition, he's just a good guy to deal with personally; no attitude problems to deal with. Stan and CWG went straight to the top of our Preferred Provider list for both our in-house work as well as who we recommend to our residents in the building. What a pleasant surprise to come across folks who don't disappoint!"

Maintenance professional with 20+ years of experience in mechanical systems, troubleshooting, and repair. I specialize in home repairs, fixture installs, drywall patching, and custom solutions—including welding and light fabrication. I take pride in clean, reliable work and showing up on time.\n\nI’m especially good at solving problems other contractors can’t or won’t take on. Whether it’s a small repair or a list of projects, I focus on getting it done right the first time. No sewer or major plumbing work.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.
