"Barefoot Painting did a great job with the iron fence at the entrance to our subdivision. They treated it and painted it and it now looks great! Their communication and customer service was also great. It was a pleasure to work with them!!"

"Bert has been wonderful since the start. He answers his phone and texts you back promptly. He shows up when he says he will which is amazing considering how hard it is for a contractor to respond to you or show up when they say they will. He did electrical work for my new pool installation and is going to do a couple other items for me as well since he can do wide variety of work. He also backs his work if you have any issues. Highly recommended! Iâ d give him 10 stars if I could."

"I cannot recommend Rolling Green Fence high enough. I would give them 10 stars if I could!! Absolutely stellar job - even better than I had hoped for. From the outstanding customer service I received when the owner, Buck, answered my first call, to the final cleanup when the job was through, every part of this job was of the highest quality. Not only was Buck incredibly responsive, his team completed my job in record time, with the greatest quality of any workers I have ever hired - bar none. My job was not standard. I needed an 8 foot wooden fence to be installed in a gully on the side of my yard to ensure privacy. Not only does the fence they installed look incredible, the team completely transformed the look of my yard by expertly aligning the adjoining fence - not even part of the original project - to almost completely eliminate the look of a fence moving down a slope. I watched the team - and a fantastic team they were - measure, align, run a level line, adjust, custom cut, and perfect each board in my fence. The supervisor worked mathematic equations on the wood, explaining to the others how he was making his calculations, and perfecting the job for me. I could not be more impressed. There is true pride in workmanship with this company and that is a rare trait to find in a contractor. Buck and his team really brought my vision to life in a big way and I cannot say enough about this amazing company. Well done, one and all!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
