"Mike is great, he is handling many aspect of this major remodel. He is doing tile work, install cabinets, finish carpentry, and install new interior and exterior doors. Everything Mike has worked on had demonstrated his craftsmanship and attention to detail. Mike has kept me informed of all aspects of the project planning and budget. He has always keep me up to date on project progress, and by keeping me informed there has been no surprises. Mike has shown integrity in all of our interactions and how he conducts himself. Very professional and I will probably work with Mike again in the future."

"I found Juan through a neighborhood website who gave him a great review. He promptly responded to my request for an estimate to demo and replace a very old fence and gate. He just as quickly gave me an estimate which I thought was very reasonable. He not only replaced my fence but he also installed a pergola on my deck and replaced my side garage door. I have a very old crooked garage but he was able to install the door by squaring it up. The fence looks fantastic and the best part was the pergola. Love love love it! During the process he included me with any changes that came up and completed the work quickly. I would highly recommend Juan for any decking or fence job."

"These guys were great! I hired them to install a laminate floor & baseboards in my lower level & they completed it quickly & professionally! I then used them to install a vanity/sink & toilet. Although the my bathroom was not plumbed for this, they were knowledgeable enough to get it done! I will continue to use them for all my handyman needs. Just a couple of nice guys with great talent!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

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.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.
