Customers say: True professional

"Chip Kroener and his partners demolished and disposed of an existing flagstone and masonry patio and replaced it with a roofed frame porch. During the initial meeting I provided a verbal concept of the porch I envisioned and the grading necessary to correct some drainage issues. They responded with drawings, some cost saving suggestions and estimate in a very timely manner. Work progressed in a very professional manner and was completed as promised and on budget. We are very pleased with the finished product which looks as if it was part of the original home design. The grading and reseeding was well done and all debris was disposed of. The work site was left safe and orderly at the end of each day. I plan on working with Chip in the future and will recommend him to anyone wanting any kind of handyman or home improvement work done."

"Accurate estimate and the job was started promptly. Great work on our new deck and the design details suggested by the carpenters added much to the overall look of the deck. Great cleanup afterwards, also. Many thanks! We would highly recommend Tidewater."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.
