"We had hired Art in the past and were very pleased with his work. We recently hired Art and his son Levi for a cabin build. The work was professional and timely with quality results. We highly recommend Art Young Construction. They worked with us, giving us suggestions and took time to listen to us. Even when they were returning to the work site the next day, they always cleaned up the area and were very neat and tidy. Their work is excellent. We can’t say enough about their work ethic and professionalism."

I specialize in int/ext painting as well as work on decks, staining, and refinishing furniture. I refinish floors and interior woodwork. I do general handyman work including hanging doors and trim, patching drywall, installing railings, some light concrete work, caulking, etc. I am highly detail oriented and have a wide range of experience including working at high end galleries in New York City. I work with clients to ensure quality and needs on a personal level. I generally work alone but at times hire a sub-contractor to facilitate floor refinishing. I am willing to work with a variety of schedules and make my own so happy to accommodate client needs.

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.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

There are some rules regarding how far your exterior bump-out can go. For a cantilever bump-out that avoids the need to provide additional structural support, the limit is often 24 inches. However, if a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can encompass a whole room or more. Remember that many residential properties are subject to limits regarding the total house size relating to the size of the lot. 

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.
