"We hired RC Brother's to remedy the faulty work of previous contractors who had completed a renovation on our house. Claudiu was our initial contact person and was incredibly patient and detailed as we were seeking out estimates from various contractors. What stood out to me about Claudiu was how genuine, through, and responsive he was throughout the whole process. We ultimately decided to hire them and here are thee highlights of working with RC Brothers: 1) Timeframe we were given was 7-10 days to complete the work. Actual time was 3 days. Talk about efficent! 2) They were incredibly neat and considerate of our space. Always cleaned up and left our space the same or better than they found it. 3) They communicate incredibly well as a team (Claudiu) and his brothers--I did not feel like I had to restate or communicate multiple times--only confirm with the team what were had already discussed and agreed upon. They operate seamlessly--from the carpentry to the plumber!"

"I am an attorney whose practice concentrates on construction litigation. Tim has been my builder of choice for nearly a decade, and with good reason. During these many years, Tim constructed a three story addition at my home, and then later completely gutted and remodeled our kitchen. The resulting work is gorgeous. Tim is a consummate professional. His work is of the highest quality. He is honest to a fault and completely reliable. Given my unique experience in the industry, Tim is one in a million. He is the rare honest contractor who truly cares about his work and about making his customers happy."

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

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.

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.

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.

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.
