Q: Why is house framing so expensive?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.</p></div>

Q: What happens if you don't fix nail pops?

• <div><p>If nail pops in your drywall aren't fixed, there can be consequences to the structure of your home and the aesthetics of the room. Nail pops may loosen or weaken drywall and may be less effective at providing support and insulation, ultimately requiring more extensive repairs or replacement in the future. If not fixed, the blemish will become increasingly unsightly over time, potentially leading to further damage as raised areas easily catch on objects or clothing. </p></div>

Q: What should I do if I missed the stud?

• <div><p>There are a few options if you miss a stud. You can simply patch the hole with spackle, sand it down, repaint it, and then find the stud&mdash;essentially starting over. If you don&rsquo;t want to do that, you can insert one of the more robust drywall anchor options and hang your item on that, but that will only work if the drywall is in excellent condition and the anchor is rated for the weight of the item you&rsquo;re hanging on it. You may be able to cover the hole with the object itself once it&rsquo;s mounted, but it&rsquo;s still recommended to at least fill the hole to protect insulation and prevent vermin from entering. </p></div>

Q: What is the best angle for bracing?

• <div><p>A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate&rsquo;s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate&rsquo;s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.</p></div>

Q: Do brick houses have framing?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;t have traditional framing. </p></div>
