"Poor quality of work. I had to stop his work after 2 days. He bolted the header board for an elevated platform through the metal siding on the house. There were two vertical posts near the foot of the access ramp for the deck. Some of the 4x4 posts were only in the ground about 12". We ended up tearing all of his work out and had a competent contractor replace it. Do not waste your money, hire someone who will do the job correctly."

"Please DO NOT HIRE. Andrew Spears preys on women. I had hired him for various small jobs to prepare my rental for sale. He claimed he could do and finish all work within two days , charging 500 a day plus supplies. He never showed on the first day but his two young sons did. They were limited to the extent of work they could do, stating their dad had the tools they needed to do the work. They had left the tub surround they had pulled out on my hard wood floors without any tarps. When I called Andrew to ask why he never called or showed he explained he had another project, when I asked if he was charging for a full day he said would only charge half day. On second day my husband came with me and Andrew's demeanor changed abruptly. After first day of work Andrew asked for 500 to pay for supplies, when asked for receipts he claimed it will all be on an invoice after work is done. Third day he asked for three days pay and still hadn't started vent on water heater, denying he said he would only charge half day for the day he never showed. Then proceeds to say I will have pay additional money when he comes back to fix water heater flue. His work was poor, left mess, totally disrespectful to my property,cut tile in our family room, when he was asked to come clean his mess and repair his poor work he had an attitude, was cleaning his construction mess with my home vacuum, my vacuum is now broke. He tried to make me feel guilty and accused my husband and I of lying. When asking for receipts he said the receipts were on bathroom wall referring to his work. As time went on and we hired others to repair his poor work we have found more and more flaws in his work, he had left hot wires in attic, fire hazard, tub tile he used wrong grout, uneven, did not seal and left too large of gap for the tub glaze guy to caulk, was never able to put recess lights in that he said he would, left drooping in ceiling where he drywall patched, list goes on , again when we approached him about the poor work had an attitude and argumentive. When he never showed for last part of job we asked him not to come back. Then he became defensive and threatened to put a lien on my house. Please stay away from this contractor."

"Horrible! The workers did not show up each day until about 10am (or later) and would leave around 2-3 pm (and that’s including an hour for lunch) so not much progress on the house daily. I was told my house would be completed within 1-2 weeks, instead it was about 2 months. All that and we were left with a less than mediocre result. I honestly don’t think these people have ever installed vinyl siding before. I have had a lot of the siding fall off and I put back myself, all the top pieces of siding fell off at least once, they came and replaced but the pieces fell off again after they left. I realized they don’t even own the notching tool for the top row pieces (or even know it exists). I had to go purchase this tool, notch the pieces and reinstall myself. Also noticed some of the siding nails were drove in tight, you cannot do this with vinyl siding. It has to be able to move with the temperature changes (can’t wait to see what happens this winter). I still have 2-3 pieces that need replaced but they are at the highest point on my house at the peak (requires a man lift to access) and have been told by the owner several weeks ago they are coming back to fix it, I’m still here, holding my breath. This company might be ok at building a small deck or maybe some bird houses but if your looking for quality craftsmanship, as you should when it comes to your home, this isn’t it."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Cupping and bowing are both types of wood warping, but they affect the board in different ways. Cupping happens when the edges of a board curl upward or downward, creating a concave or convex shape across its width. Conversely, bowing is when the board curves along its length, forming a gentle arc. 

Ensures proper sealing and alignment, preventing drafts and improving energy efficiency.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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.
