"Donald was AMAZING. I purchased a home from a builder that was listed as a four bedroom, but when I inspected the home prior to closing, I realized it was a three bedroom with a bonus room. Most contractors told me they were unable to take the job because the project was too small, but Donald was eager to help (even though he typically works on much larger projects, too). He was transparent about costs and timing and worked within what he promised. I would absolutely hire Donald again, and if you're looking for someone who is honest and does great work, contact Idahome Builders!!"
"Tried several contractors, these guys are the best. Great communication, detailed contact prior to starting outlining scope of work, so we knew we were on the same page with everything that needed to be done. Extremely hard working, kept to schedule even though we threw some curve balls their way. Knowledgeable, remedied previous contractors mistakes in structural additions. Very fair and honest, went above and beyond to change several things that we changed throughout the process. Fair price and good, transparent accounting of materials and costs. They do it all, structural, shelving, electrical, paint.. and anything they did not have immediate expertise in, Rus had a guy or two we got quotes from (tile, etc.). We will definitely call these guys again with any projects we need done. Highly recommend. Good job!!"

"I hired KNR to remodel my house this last spring. After bringing in a couple other contractors to put in bids I went with KNR because he seemed to be a little more knowledgable and his prices were reasonable as well. The project went smooth and everything was completed on time. The quality of the work was top notch, you can tell that the owner really takes pride in their work. Would highly recommend!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts
The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.
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.
The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.
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.
Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them.
