"Cory was great! No short cuts. He said the door went in perfect, but had issues. He made it happen. The door was plumbed to exact measurements. Personally, I highly recommend Cory. Polite, and professional. After the job was finished, I said I would clean up. He said no, the job is not finished until I clean up. I highly recommend Cory. Best, Scott"

"Josh and his assistant did a wonderful job putting our kitchen back together after a water leak. Many repairs were needed and they did it all! They always showed up early each morning to get the job done. Josh is professional, friendly and most importantly does really great work. I felt at ease that the job would be done right. I was very pleased with the services provided and would recommend them to anyone needing small or big jobs done right."

"I bought an Ikea armoire and wanted it to match my bedroom furniture. I was told that it was difficult to make changes particularly painting Ikea furniture. I was pleasantly surprised when Metropolitan restoration Center offered me a reasonable price and more than delivered. Saying I'm pleased is not enough for the results. I have a very nice looking cabinet that matches quite nicely with the rest of my furniture. All of this done at a reasonable price!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.
