Q: What is wall framing?

• <div><p>Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house&rsquo;s structural integrity. </p><p>Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Do repairs include re-mounting or realignment?

• <div><p>Yes, professionals re-mount and realign antennas for optimal signal reception.</p></div>

Q: What is included in framing a house?

• <div><p>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&mdash;like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more&mdash;are not included in the cost to frame a house.</p></div>

Q: Do joists sit on beams?

• <div><p>Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don&rsquo;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&rsquo;ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.</p></div>

Q: How much bowing in a wall is acceptable?

• <div><p>Any bowing in a basement wall signals an issue that needs to be addressed. However, bowing of 2 to 4 inches is more straightforward to fix than bowing of more than 4 inches. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s essential to call a pro as soon as you notice the bowing wall. The sooner you address the problem, the easier (and less expensive) it will be to repair.</p></div>

Mr. Ron and his team did a great job for us including fascia and trim repairs, window framing, some carpentry, pressure washing and exterior painting. They were polite and easy to deal with. We were very happy with the results.

4 day job turned into 9 days and they did not complete the job. I'll have to hire someone else to finish it. It was a bathroom remodel and when they left and failed to return, we were left with an unfinished vanity sink and the toilet wasn't installed. Plaster all over the place that...

It went well. Once again, I found CJ Custom Carpentry to be very professional. In the process of doing two bathrooms in a 60+ year old home, we had only one major hitch. The framing for the floor of the master bathroom was built several inches below the level of the bedroom floor. The gap...

Quality of the work was poor. The exterior trim was fair but there were large gaps in the carpentry done on the interior. I personally had to go back and fill the gaps with putty. I would not recommend this company for any finished work.
