"I searched this app for someone to finish our basement and MH Contracting was one of the recommended contractors. Man are we glad! Mike was very professional with the initial meeting where we discussed our vision for the basement. He listened to our ideas and gave us some direction as well which we really needed. He sent the quote and a CAD drawing of the layout. Their cost per square foot was very fair to other quotes but something drew me to Mike. We were set to start in the fall which was the height of Covid and then we got sick. Mike was very flexible with pushing the start schedule out a couple of weeks for us to get better and to make sure our house was clean and sanitized. When they started all protocols were taken. Mike?s entire crew was very professional and were wonderful in answering our questions and open to discussing our requests along the way. All in all, so very accommodating and the end result was amazing. They were involved in all aspects of the job from framing, plumbing, electrical, drywall, painting and finishing. Nothing was left unattended by someone from Mike?s crew. We have recommended MH Contracting to our neighbors and have found our contractor for every project moving forward. I never write reviews but knew I had to this time because our basement is now an integral part of our home. It?s absolutely beautiful!"

"Jesse and team did a great job on a closet. They framed, did new dry wall, hung no-fold doors, finished and painted. They do quality work, keep a clean job site, and are thorough. We appreciated Jesse?s professional and friendly approach."

"They are prompt and easy to work with. That comes with a price though - $168 for the service call and 1st hour. The 2nd hour is pretty high as well. Iâ d use them again when stuck on something but couldnâ t afford to use them on a 4-5 hour project"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
