"We have health issues and this team performed outstanding customer care and workmanship. They replaced the duct work and replaced the ceiling vents throughout the house. They made sure that no debris entered the interior of the house through the ceiling vents. What little insulation did enter the house through the entrance to the crawl space, they vacuumed . They were prompt and wore masks the whole time. I definitely recommend this company. My only regret is that they do not perform painting and carpentry work!"

"Lee and Nick are the best. They provided me with an accurate estimate and drawing for our new cabinets. Lee's follow through during the process was great and kept us well informed. On the day of install the team tape off our non-work areas to reduce dust and vacuumed up each day when they finished. There was an error in ordering the doors and they were not able to install them for 5 weeks. When this error was noticed, prior to leaving, Nick and the Team made sure all cabinets and drawers were usable so we could put everything away and use all the features. Lee kept us posted on the doors and when they arrived Nick and the team promptly came over and installed them. The paint colors on the doors matched perfectly with everything else. We will use Better cabinets and baths again for any kitchen and bath needs."
"Joe was very responsive and friendly. He did an excellent job repairing and servicing all of the 26 storm shutters on our entire two-story home for a very reasonable cost. I plan to call him next year to have him come back and take care of our yearly maintenance."
Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.
House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.
Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.
Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.
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.
