"I contacted Thrifty Dee for a stair repair project for our rental property. We had a tight timeline due to a tenant moving in a couple of days. Dee was able to get to the property and assess the project within a couple of hours. He completed the job the very next day. His quality of work and attention to detail was phenomenal. His fee for the scope of work was more than fair. I will definitely use Thrifty Dee again for future projects as well as recommend him to anyone in need of a carpenter."

"These guys stayed on task, took care of my lawn when building the deck, and stayed in close communication with me during the build out. Project was completed on time and gave me some great ideas on various alternatives I could go with regarding a pergola. Wonderful experience."

"From the estimate through completion, Craig and his crew were amazing. He kept me involved and let me explain plans and worked with me to make it happen. They are beyond reasonable in pricing, efficient and clean when on site. My neighbors has work done based on their actions at my house. There's tons of companies that are fancy and play games, these guys don't. Do your self a favor and hire them."

Customers say: Quick response

"Follow up to my previous review as at the time I had to leave town and had not seen the final product, the results were perfect, exactly what I was expecting. To reiterate, working with Adam and Rachel was great, they are professional, friendly, communicative with customer satisfaction of top importance. Would absolutely work with again. After removing the popcorn ceilings, painting the ceilings and walls, the transformation was dramatic, thank you again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.
