"Andrew did an excellent job building our deck. From start to finish he worked efficiently and with remarkable attention to every detail. He kept us informed of his process throughout the project and always made us aware of his schedule. Not only is his workmanship exemplary but he performs his craft with a friendly yet professional attitude. We feel very fortunate to have found such a talented craftsman."

"I can’t say enough on how happy I am with my new kitchen drawers. The house was built in 1960 and all the cabinets are made of solid wood accept the drawers. He built new drawers with the soft close. And also put the shelves for me to just pull out for my pots. They did great job and as for me I will give them a 5 star. Not to mention how professional he was. Looking now to get my kitchen cabinets painted. The price was better than anyone else I received estimates from."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors.
