"Nathan and the team were fantastic to work with. We had a somewhat unique project building stairs down our hill to the river, so we needed someone who had experience with non-traditional builds. The entire Schwartz team was extremely helpful from start to finish. Nathan helped design the stairs, with our input, and went through all of the appropriate channels for inspections and DNR. While the build was in progress, the whole team was considerate and friendly, and we were updated on the progress and discussed options as the stairs took shape. The craftsmanship is topnotch, and you can tell they know what they are doing. They even finished up our fence that had to be cut through to reach the stairs. The end product is beautiful, and I cant recommend Schwartz Solutions enough."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

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.

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. 

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
