"Father and Sun Handyman Service did an excellent job installing a carport on the side of my house as well as an automatic dual swing gate opener. Their pricing was very affordable, and the quality of their work exceeded my expectations. They were genuinely happy, courteous, and easy to have around, which made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. I especially appreciated their creativity and problem-solving skills — they came up with smart solutions whenever challenges came up. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and affordable handyman service"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

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.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.
