"Mike came out and looked at the drywall repairs I needed. He completed the work as promised. It took 3 trips to prep and finish the drywall repairs. He had a conflict one day and called to reschedule the final repairs. The work met our expectations and the charges were reasonable ."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.
