"I called the company and Anthony called me back promptly and set up an appointment to provide a free estimate Monday 3/4 at 9am. Precisely at 9am Anthony arrived, listened very carefully, gave numerous suggestions and quoted the price to me. He was totally professional, knowledgeable and a gentleman. Out of 4 bids, this company was the lowest price. Normally I don't go with the lowest price being concerned that quality would be at risk, however, I am so glad I chose this company.... the quality of their work is outstanding! Anthony explained that they could do the work today, Tuesday 3/5 and 5 men would be on site at 7am. At 6:30am there were two trucks in my driveway. How often does that happen? Anthony was there at 7am reviewing the scope of work and ensuring all was well. The painters and the Master carpenter were amazing! As a seasoned DIY'r and someone used to construction and projects (we are renovating an entire 2 story colonial and have done this to numerous homes we have owned) this crew was probably the single best I have ever seen. They are "machines". Not only are they neat, nice and professional, they asked me regularly to check their work and if I liked what they were doing. They actually encouraged me to look at the work in progress and tell them if I saw anything i did not like (again, who does this?) I am an experienced woodworker and their Master carpenter who installed the crown molding had me in awe. He measured, cut the pieces and they were spot on the first time. He was respectful of the materials I supplied and there was minimal waste. I cannot say enough good about my experience with this company, I will most definitely invite them back to my home to do more work. Quality, honesty and good old fashioned craftmanship is what I would tell you is their business model. Thanks to all for a great job! "
Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.
It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.
No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.
Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.
