"They did two major projects for us tearing down and rebuilding my dream deck and front porch. They went above and beyond to create more than I imagined. They really impressed us with their knowledge and the quality of their work. They are very transparent on cost and honest. Great communication and they really listen to their customers. I am so thankful I found them and will definitely be using them again. They are my number #1 suggestion to anyone in the tristate for home projects."

"We had a small list of things that we needed help with around the house. From hanging a shelf in our laundry room, replacing light fixtures in our hallway, and even putting the numbers on our house. Mike was very efficient, professional, and knowledgeable about everything we asked of him. He is a life saver!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.

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.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.
