"I've genuinely never had a better experience with a contractor before. Larry, John, and the entire crew not only offered me the best price on the ramp build but also exceeded my expectations with their work. I'm truly fortunate to have hired them and would happily recommend them to all my family and friends."

"Nathan is not only an OCD fine carpenter -- he is also a great communicator and a great guy. He installed our new 8-ft elegant front door after having demolished the existing entry door, with its sidelight and eyebrow windows and a 6'8" door place there by the original builder of the home. Entirely new framing job. He helped me with the order itself, did troubleshooting for me when no one know where the door was after we were told it was shipped, and stayed well into the evening on installation day to make sure it was in readiness to be used and locked up for the night. The results are STUNNiNG. We would never hesitate to use Nathan for any of our remodeling needs where a finish carpenter is needed. Thank you, Nathan!"

"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."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

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.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.
