"Friendly and professional. Quality workmanship. I got a detailed written quote the same day and the project was completed VERY QUICKLY and exactly as discussed and documented in the written contract. I really liked that there was no attempt to oversell, the plan for the repair and replacement was tailored so that I got exactly what was needed done right: everything from well constructed new fence on the sections that were damaged beyond repair to functional fixes on the sections that just needed a little bit of work. I am very pleased with the process and the results. I highly recommend DHP Construction and intend to use them for future projects."

"Had bill and chris here for a storm door replacement. The door looks great, closes easily no complaints. Bill and chris were polite and respectful. Sure appreciate their efforts and quality craftsmanship and willingness to provide home improvement services especially during this covid19 period. Will absolutely ask for them both again for the next project"

"He was very prompt in coming after I called him. He came the very same day. He told me he would be here within an hr and then called me when he was on his way. Did the job exactly how we needed and for the exact amount that he told us. Very neat and cleaned up after job was done. I would recommend Keaton to anyone. Already asked him to come back for another job. Thanks Keaton!"

write this review so that the request to write this review stops
popping up.
The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit.

"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me.  Overall, they're good designs.  However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning.  I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging.  
Jill was very responsive when I did have a question.  I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done.  If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.
