"We are so happy to have connected with Walter. What started as a request for an estimate for a new railing around our deck turned into a consultation - not a hard sales job, but an honest evaluation of the overall structure and suggestions as to how we could improve both its appearance and stability. Pricing was fair, craftsmanship was excellent, and Walter and his team delivered an outstanding finished product - on time and on budget! Walter Montero Carpentry will be a first call for future projects!!"

"I hired Adam and his team to frame and install my new kitchen including framing out a new pantry in a very difficult space as well as install a slider and reconfigure some walls. I am so pleased with the result. His attention to detail and work ethic are a rare find. I would recommend anyone needing any carpentry, framing, windows and doors work to contact him, you will not be disappointed."

"Mauro is not only a skilled carpenter, he is a responsible and friendly business owner. He responds quickly to text, phone, and email messages and provides timely and professional estimates and invoices. He shows up when he says he will and he, individually, does the work of two carpenters in half the time. He did a fantastic job refinishing our basement and has also successfully undertaken a myriad of additional projects including a very challenging carpentry project. I have recommended Mauro to several friends and will call him again and again."

"Nixon provides great service in a timely manner. He and his crew were efficient, polite and respectful of the areas they worked in. They performed carpentry work that was excellent and quickly solved a roofing and sealing/painting issue for me. Nixon was responsive by phone and showed up when he said he was going to each time. His pricing was a bit on the high side and you get what you pay for. I will definitely be calling on Nixon and his crew again for future work."

"Edie and his crew were easy to work with and reasonably priced. His work in rebuilding our porch and back deck were excellent with helpful suggestions in design. We liked his work so much that we continued working with him to build a stone patio attached to the deck and re-do our front yard retaining wall."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

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.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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.
