"We hired Dan to build our deck. The craftsmanship was amazing and we are very happy with how it turned out. The price was very reasonable. Communication, however, was not so amazing. There were multiple weeks where he did not show with no explanation. He asked us for the final payment before the project was finished. He is skilled as a contractor, but definitely needs help in organization and communicating with clients."

"When my mom unexpectedly had to move out of her home into a smaller, one level condo, Josh with JMB Enterprises made sure to add absolutely everything we needed to make sure she was safe & the transaction went smoothly. He has been wonderful to work with. Knowledgeable, efficient, hard working? I can?t say enough good things. I will be utilizing his help at the new condo and my own house. 100% I am also recommending Josh to the neighbors inquiring if we have a handyman. I say we have an ?excellent? one!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

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.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.
