"Chad and Scott did a fantastic job, from concept to completion of our project. We needed an interior wall, framing, door, drywall, texture, & painting, & all the details to enclose our kitchen from our entry. They understood our concept, and had the work done from start to finish in 2 weeks. Meticulous, detail-oriented, polite, & fun to have them here in our home are how we would describe our relationship with Chad & Scott. They even let us keep adding other small projects along with the wall construction, always being cheerful & accommodating. We would definitely recommend them to our friends & neighbors for any projects! Susan & Larry"

"Corey did an incredible job installing our kitchen cabinets! He is very professional and always thoroughly communicates with my husband and me to ensure everything is just the way we want it. I was also impressed by how clean he kept his work area, which was nice given the fact that we were currently living in our house at the time."

"Mahoney Construction was hired to build a new porch that extended from an existing shop. The quality of the work made the addition appear to be part of the original build. Shawn is professional and easy to work with. He is also reasonably priced, which is rare in this valley. I highly recommend Mahoney Construction for any work you need."

"From start to finish super easy to work with. They worked around my schedule and kept me under budget. The crew from A.T.F Construction arrived on time they were knowledgeable and professional. They kept me well informed through the entire process. I can’t thank them enough for saving me money where I didn’t need to spend it. They were honest about products and which ones they recommended. I’m over the top happy with the turn out of the floors and paint. A.T.F construction made my home look like new again. Definitely without hesitation going to use them in the future."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

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

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

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.
