"I had an excellent experience with Building Legacies Handyman Services! Jeremy came out to install my stove and dishwasher, and he was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and respectful from start to finish. He took his time to make sure everything was installed correctly, tested everything before leaving, and made sure the area was clean when the job was finished. Jeremy was friendly, dependable, and clearly takes pride in the quality of his work. It is hard to find someone who is both skilled and genuinely cares about doing the job right, but he definitely delivered. I would highly recommend Building Legacies Handyman Services to anyone needing work done in their home. I will absolutely be calling them again for future projects. Five-star service all the way!"

"Luis and his crew were awesome. They sent me progress photos throughout the day as they worked, and they let me know when they found stuff that previous installations had gone wrong with. They were super up front with labor and material costs, and they made sure that I was happy with the install work at each phase. The house looks amazing, and I am confident that we fixed the issues that were underneath the old siding. I cannot recommend them enough, give them a call. You won't be disappointed!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

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.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.
