"We had a great experience with Kelly. He did a couple of railings for us using materials we already had, and they turned out amazing. He got back to me quickly, gave a straightforward estimate and stuck to it, and was able to get us on the schedule pretty fast. The quality of his work is excellent. We already have a few more projects in mind for him and would definitely recommend him."

"couldn?t be happier with the work this framing contractor did on my basement project. He framed the entire basement and completed a dropped ceiling, and the quality of the work exceeded my expectations. From the beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He took the time to understand the layout and made sure everything was framed accurately and according to plan. His attention to detail was evident throughout the project, from straight walls and properly aligned framing to the precision of the dropped ceiling work. He showed up when he said he would, maintained a clean and organized work area, and kept me informed of progress along the way. They completed the project in a timely manner without cutting corners, which gave me confidence that the job was being done right. His workmanship made it clear he takes pride in his craft and cares about delivering a quality finished product. Would definitely hire again!!!"

We truly appreciate you coming out in the middle of the night and taking care of everything, including drying the area, removing and cleaning the carpet, and fixing the doorknobs. Your prompt attention and willingness to go above and beyond did not go unnoticed. Thank you for your professionalism and care in addressing the situation."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

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.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

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.
