"Russ was amazing to work with. Very professional and easy to get ahold of when we had questions. He came out multiple times to ensure that we had the proper stain to match the floors. He worked on our time frame as we had contractors we were working around. I would recommend him to anyone looking to refinish a staircase."

"John is a real professional. He does quality work! The contractors who I hired to paint the crown moulding complimented his work! I even asked John at the last minute to build a door casing for an uncased entrance I had from the dining room to the hallway, which he agreed to do -- and did a wonderful job. I highly recommend him if you're interested in quality."

"I can't say enough good things about the way Ethan and his team handled our project. Ethan was great about explaining what work needed to be done and how the job would progress. There were no surprise extra costs and the start and finish of the work were as we were told. His team, Manny and Paul worked as hard as possible and were always VERY cheerful and had a friendly greeting for us whenever we saw them. They were always willing to stop and answer any questions we had. Great guys. All that said, the work turned out even better than we expected. Overall the siding work is a relatively expensive proposition, but considering our house is our #1 family asset, it made sense to do it once and do it right. Thanks again to Ethan and his whole crew. They did not disappoint."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

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.
