"Excellent. When most contractors won’t even call you back and large multi state remodelers try to sell to you like used car salesmen, Kyle returns calls, shows up and performs excellent work for reasonable prices. Hire him, you won’t be sorry."

"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."

"We hired New Life Construction to get our old fence replaced. Sofia and her husband did an amazing job, they planned and executed everything so well that before you knew it our new fence was up. I will definitely be hiring them for any other future projects."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

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.
