"To say Chris and his team of expert carpenters "repaired and replaced" our sad, worn out deck is an understatement. What was a neglected deck of age is now a refreshed deck and boardwalk ready to welcome (safely) our neighbors, friends and family to enjoy the upcoming warm seasons lakeside. Chris and his team completed the project on time and on budget (with a few exceptions to uncovering unknown water damage - and even so, being very reasonable for the extra costs and labor). We would absolutely trust Chris and his team to do it all again, and so should you. Thanks, Chris!"

"Garth was absolutely wonderful to work with! He arrived exactly when he said he would, and was very commutative. He was the only one who could find the shelf hardware that we needed for our older shelves in our pantry, and completed the job very efficiently. We needed to have the job done in a short time frame, and he was so good to fit us into his busy schedule asap. We will definitely be calling upon Garth for future house projects!!"

"Charlie is friendly, easy to talk to, professional, meticulous, and methodical. He rescued our deck from the mess it was originally. He made the best of a VERY poorly executed initial build (we FIRED original guy and crews)! Would love to see what he could do as a new build."

Carpentry FAQs, 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.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

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.

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.
