"S&L is great!! I have nothing put positive things to say about this business. I looked up a few other companies and saw this one had good Yelp reviews and am so glad I went with them. They're professional, have a great team and did an amazing job with my office restoration! Everything was done in a timely manner and all my questions were answered and understood. As my first renovation S&L made it simple, fast, and everything ran so smoothly! The work was very thoughtfully done and you can tell how thorough and professional the job was. I was quoted by 6 contractors before them but none felt like the right fit until this home remodeling contract came along. Thank you guys for your awesome communication, timeliness, and execution! As far as general contractors go, you're in good hands with these guys!"

They were meticulous in every way, and the result is magnificent. Every money spent on the service was well worth it, and everything went smoothly from beginning to end. Bay renovation is the company to choose if you're searching for a trustworthy renovation contractor. Extremely happy!"

"Eric and his EA Homebuilders team remodeled our primary bathroom, which involved moving walls, framing, plumbing, electrical, installing a tile shower, and finishes. I had never worked with them before. Their quote was competitive, their work progressed at a rapid pace, and they finished the project in the timeframe promised. There were 2 occasions where changes needed to be made and they were reasonably accommodated without any nickel-and-diming. Eric is a great communicator and is always asking the customer if they need anything. Working with a contractor for the first time is always a nervous experience, but EA Homebuilders delivered on everything, and they will be invited to bid on all of my future projects."

"STOP if you are wondering who to hire, think no further because Leonel is for you! Our project was to takeover the work of a previous contractor, Leonel stepped in and boy did he come through...taking on a project that was pulled apart by someone else is hard enough but taking on one such as the magnitude of ours and completing it early goes to show what an incredible craftsman Leonel is. He was very articulate in making sure he was on track and following the guidelines, he communicated daily with arrival times and any access or requirements he might need. The quality of his work is superior, everything looks wonderful and its all thanks to Leonel."

"Michael and his team were incredibly professional. They remodeled two of our bathrooms, including doubling the square footage in our master suite. Michael stood behind his work and insured. We were fully satisfied with the product. Throughout every stage of the process, he kept a clean and tidy, worksite, and was respectful of our families time and space. We’ve referred Michael to many of our friends because of the great work and professionalism he exuded on the job. We plan on using Michael and his team for our kitchen makeover later this year."

"We had an excellent experience working with GAXL, Jose the owner and Elizabeth during our general/home repair project. From the beginning, we appreciated how responsive GAXL was to our initial inquiry. They provided an estimate and worked along side with us to hone the details of the project. All changes during the project were handled through change requests and we felt confident that GAXL would handle the project responsibly. Elizabeth and Jose were always reachable for questions and provided all services needed. The crew was always professional, respectful, and friendly too. We were definitely pleased with the relationship with GAXL and the outcome of our project overall! We highly recommend GAXL for your next home remodeling and/or repair project."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

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.
