"Very friendly and professional service. Tim came to my house for an initial consultation. He was very professional and patient and explained everything very well and answered all my questions. I had great confidence I had contacted the right people for the job and that proved to be 100% correct. Josh did EXCELLENT work and is perhaps one of the most polite and respectful people Iâ ve ever met. The whole experience was great and the damage to my walls (caused primarily by movers) disappeared. In fact, I think my walls look better than new! Additionally, he did very clean work. I didnâ t have any dust (from sanding) to cleanup afterward. Itâ s clear that Josh takes great pride in what he does. Iâ ll definitely use 2nd Street Painting for any home repairs or future projects without question. A+++"

"Jim and his team took on our complicated basement remodel. This involved grinding the foundation floor down to meet height clearance, framing, electrical, plumbing, floors, drywall, and painting. Being an older house with several code issues, project faced many delays and headaches for everyone involved. However, Jim and his team did excellent while addressing each requirement. Our one complaint would be that communications were not always clear and consistent. Overall we are happy with the work quality."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

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.
