Hello, I am able to handle all remodeling needs from framework to plumbing, to laying tile to repairing a door hinge. I believe in providing a fair price for both sides, and communicating with the homeowner to keep them up to date. I grew up working with my fathers remodeling business, and that brings me to 20+ years of experience.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible, but professional construction ensures structural integrity and proper anchoring.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.
