"Sergio and his assistant were excellent! I had several carpentry jobs and a couple electrical jobs and he did them all. I feel fortunate to find someone I can call now to help with things i need done around the property. Very reasonable priced and well worth the cost!"

"Jason is a hard worker and committed to getting the job done right and in a reasonable amount of time. For us he completed our entire staircase in 1 day. He took up the carpet and put down wood for the steps, sanded and caulked areas and more! This job was enough for 2 people but he did it all himself. It looks fantastic and ready for the final job which is painting. Thank you Jason! You are the BEST!!! Kind regards, The Kings"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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 a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

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.

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.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.
