"CBJ Home Improvements did a fantastic job on my outdoor living project (enlarging deck, installing screen room, and building a patio). First of all, the workers that built each part of the project were Craftsmen! Each putting in their own expert 'signature' custom piece. Secondly, they finished the work within the scheduled time. I will get CBJ for all my general contracting needs! Al and Vanessa"

"We were very happy with the work Edwin and his team did. They framed out our unfinished basement, unfinished drywall and painted. They put in extra time and care to make sure everything was done properly. We will definitely hire him and his team for future projects."

"I can't say enough about Harry! He completely renovated my (total gut job) rental. He stripped the house down to the framing, including replacement of loadbearing walls! The entire house is brand new and beautiful! He is trustworthy, reasonably priced and takes much pride in his work! Harry has also completed many projects in my residence! I promise, you will not be disappointed!"

"Very courteous and professional staff at Home Genius. Was very reliable company. However the time frame of the install did fluctuate a bit. I’m glad to say I chose this company looking forward to getting more additional work with them."

"Stan, the owner, and his crew did an outstanding job on our wood back deck and front deck stair replacement. The quality of their work was excellent, and they completed everything quickly and professionally. They were friendly, respectful, and kept the work area clean. Additionally, the price was very fair considering the quality provided. I highly recommend Stan’s Home Improvement to anyone looking for reliable, skilled, and reasonably priced work!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.

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.
