"Kurt did a great job and was very efficient. He was able to repair all rot, and at a fraction of the cost of several other estimates. He repaired several window frames and replaced some of the baseboards. I was worried about having to replace siding, but only one small piece had to be replaced. Kurt is a great contractor and is very reliable and honest. We are planning to hire him to do more work on the back of our house."

"Brian was very methodical and thorough in the installation of the valances, drapes and rod. We communicated several times before he was scheduled to arrive so he would know the width and length of the windows, drapes and valances and know what hardware to bring for the installation, The job went very smoothly and I was very pleased with the final results. Brian was very personable and a delight to work with. Will definitely call/hire him again!"

"Once again, we could not be more pleased with the work that Matt and his sub-contractors did for us. Just as we were totally satisfied with Gove's painting of our 18th century home a couple years ago, we were very impressed with theirwork on rebuilding the front of our 100-year old carriage-style garage and installing overhead doors. Matt was extremely helpful in describing options to us, helping us determine the best approach for functionality, aesthetics, and price. What was most impressive was his close coordination and management of the various workers who completed carpentry and electrical work. He stopped over frequently to oversee the work and ensured that materials arrived on time and work was completed on schedule. With Gove, a client doesn't have to choose among quality, speed, service, price - you get it all. Matt and his brother (as well as his dad) are the best at what they do - they are our go-to people whenever our house needs work."

"Agile Construction was very professional. They asked what needed to get done and then came in and executed it flawlessly. They were able to answer my questions and explained the work and their methodology. They came to repair my window sill. And it looks way better than before."

"Fantastic Service! I can't say enough about this great company. Our house was a dull brown, the wood was rotting in many places and had carpenter ants, carpenter bees, and some of the slats were falling off. Now our home is a beautiful midnight blue with stunning white trim! I can't believe the transformation! These guys did a great job. Jeremy went above and beyond to find us a great deal on a front door and worked with our timing to complete the whole siding project. When they working on the south side of my house, they discovered that one of my windows was rotted out. Jeremy made several calls and was able to locate a replacement that day. Jeremy knew we were on a tight budget, so he worked us to find a solution to fit our home while still using a high-quality product. The workers were fast, efficient, and professional. I couldn't believe how they were willing to work in frigid temperatures to complete the project in a timely manner. We are extremely pleased with the results. Though the prices seemed higher at first than some of the bids we received, we recognized the true value of what we were getting. In the end, Jeremys prices were comparable to some of the quotes we got that were for a lower quality product."

"Exceptional work! I sent in my request for the job and they came within a day and a half, got the job done in just a few hours. They are also open to all your opinions and critiques. Their customer service and punctuality was really great. It took me and my family days and hours to try and do the job ourselves, but Mastak are pros. My doors look so good! Thank you so much!"

"I’m very pleased with the service and work I received from Timber Wolf contractors and his crew. He contacted me and arranged a time to look at the work I needed done. He promptly sent me a quote. He set up a time between our schedules to build my spiral staircase and replace a window with a vent. He arrived on time and completed the job beyond my satisfacon. I was so pleased with the results and communication I received, that I hired them to come to my other home to install "Flooring for my sunroom, pantry and hallway. They also painted trim and upgraded my hardware on my kitchen cabinets. I felt very comfortable with Timber and left him a key so I could go to work. I highly recommend Timber Wolf contractors for your home projects, they are professional, polite and hardworking. Respectfully, A. Saint"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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

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.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

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.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.
