"We worked with Dylan on a number of house projects, beginning with a full bathroom remodel. We also had him hang new doors throughout the house and build/install a customer island in a tight kitchen. He has an eye for finish details that tend to be ignored, and we were extremely pleased with the finished products on the entire project."

"Canâ t recommend Matt highly enough! He installed a few interior doors in my house. From custom-cutting them to fit and swing perfectly, to building out beautiful trim, every bit of work he did was phenomenal. On top of it all, his pricing is extremely fair, and heâ s just a cool guy! Youâ d be crazy not to hire him for your next carpentry project."

"Highly recommend Shoeboot?s Carpentry! They did an amazing job working on my house. They were professional, on time, communicative, and paid attention to every detail. The quality of the work exceeded my expectations and everything was completed exactly how I wanted. It?s hard to find reliable people these days, and I?m really glad I hired them. I?ll definitely be using them again for future projects."

"His work quality was at the highest level. He replaced fence posts across my property and actually mixed the concrete in a wheelbarrow. Did the work the a old fashion way and came in at his bid price. Very easy to work with and very accountable with arrival times and attention to detail."

"I recently had a great experience working with Mark and Javier on a drywall repair job in our basement. Mark was able to figure out exactly what was needed just by sending over a few photos and chatting on the phone. It’s easy to tell he has massive experience. The work was priced reasonably and Javier knocked it out in a few days. They even went above and beyond and framed out a box to access our new sump pump that was recently installed. They even took care of replacing base board around the finished repairs. I highly recommend these guys and will definitely be calling again for any future jobs."

"I first hired Daniel and his team to scrape my front yard to get it ready for spring planting, and to plant four new trees. They did such a good job, I was thrilled to hire them right away to build a new retaining wall in my 100-year old house basement. They worked within the timeframe I needed them to, as I also was working with another company to replace my furnace. The wall came out better than I could have imagined! When I had some leakage problems with my sprinkler system, they came and worked on that, as well as replaced an old valve. They went above and beyond on my multiple projects. Daniel and his team are pros! I highly recommend them and look forward to using their services again! Thank you D&D!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.
