"Timber did a great job on our house. We had the initial obstacle of the first contractor we hired being unable to complete the job. This is how we came across Timber. He picked up where the other company left off, repairing unsatisfactory work done by the first contractor. His workmanship showed when he had to come up with some creative solutions using the materials available to him. He was a great communicator and completed the job to our satisfaction, within the timeframe we agreed upon, and for a very fair price."

"This contractor is first class in every aspect of their work. Starting with the estimate process, there’s no uncertainty with what they are doing. They provide a very detailed estimate and it’s clear what’s included and what is not. Very refreshing to see the details described in their estimates. Their work is second to none and every employee is kind and addresses any question you have right away. They actually make you feel like you’re their best and only customer. This is our 4th home and we’ve worked with contractors for over 20 years, I’ve never seen such attention to detail and high quality work before. This contractor takes their time and even when no one is looking, they will redo things to make it perfect. My wife and I were happy with the work and there were some very minor items they didn’t like when they did the final inspection/walk through and they fixed it on their nickel. We didn’t even notice it but their attention to detail picked it up. You can’t find a better contractor to work on your home. We’ve spoken to others that have used them and it’s the same story. We’ve never heard a bad word about them or their work. They were prompt, there were no hidden costs and the work was perfect. If you’re looking for high quality work and great customer service, Gove Restoration has it all."

"3 Son’s Siding & Gutters LLC did my roof about four months ago.They came and gave me a price that was more than fair…3 Son’s were very professional,work very safely.They stripped two layers, found that they had to get plywood and replace the whole roof, it was a bit more but they did the plywood, re-shingled the roof in the one day.i was very impressed with the way all the workers did what needed to be done. The job was done in a day and a half,all the mess was picked up went around the house with magnets picking up all the nails.All I can say I believe they are very professional, very concerned about how my property was left I think it was cleaner than when they started.Very good crew did a great job couldn’t be any happier. Great crew very professional!!!! Thanks for all your hard work.Al Couture Southwick Mass."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

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

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

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.
