"Ted, the estimator, used a very sharp pencil and was concerned with doing a good job at a good price. My deck had some rotting railing and needed staining. Ted, carefully looked over the deck and made his measurements. He explained what was needed and why so we understood what was the job they were going to do. They phoned before they were going to start so we had time to prepare. The crew started the work and introduced themselves when we check on their work. Immediately we felt very comfortable with them. They were friendly and explained what they were doing and why. As whith most projects, a little more damage was found. I asked that it be replaced as needed and I offered to pay since it was not included in the estimate. The extra damage was repaired but they stuck with their estimate and rejected my offer to pay an additional amount. The project turned out as nice as we were expecting. We will definitely hire them again."

"Josh did an amazing job with my new deck project. The demolition and disposal of the old deck and construction of the new deck was top notch. He is very reliable, works quickly, and communicates well."

"He came immediately. Unfortunately, we noticed a structural problem that we need to fix before we can hire him to do the exterior work. I called him and hope to use him in the Spring when this problem is remedied."

"Exceptional work and a true professional. Highly recommend and would happily hire Codey again. Codey helped us complete a partially finished basement office by adding trim and casing around two doors and an egress window, installed a bifold closet with trim/casing, and added baseboards around the room. His work was clean and detailed and the room looks great due to this. He also fixed several issues from a previous contractor along the way, including resizing a door cutout that was too small, adjusting another door that never closed properly, and installed a header for the closet that a previous contractor did not. Overall his work was exceptional, he was transparent on all aspects of the project, very polite, and completed ahead of schedule. Highly recommend."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.

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.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

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.
