How do you ask the question, 'Can you replace wood?

¿Puede usted reemplazar madera? or

¿Puede reemplazar madera a usted?

I never know where to put usted.

Thanks.

Both are correct. The first emphasizes madera. The second emphasizes usted.

I would only use the second if I were suprised that this particular guy could do this, rather than someone else.
