"Pablo and his crew did excellent work. The communication was very clear, the price was fair, and most importantly, the quality of the work was outstanding. The attention to detail was as good as I have ever seen from a contractor. Previous to the hurricane, we had contracted him to build a deck. The hurricane delayed that considerably, but he showed up to offer me some quotes on repairing all of the hurricane damage. The quotes were fair, and his crew worked with extra extraordinary dedication. After he had finished the repair work from the hurricane, he began on the deck and finished that with the same quality of attention to detail. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in the Boone or Banner Elk area of North Carolina."

"I hired the Tailored Closet for three projects in my house: a small pantry closet, my master closet, and a large pantry cabinet in my kitchen. The work was outstanding! They were so easy to work with getting the designs made, the products were exactly what I was asking for, and install was quick and professional. I am very pleased with the way these turned out! The options they have available for any type of closet or cabinetry is incredible!! You could literally do anything you could imagine. I will definitely be using them for future jobs and recommend them to everyone!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

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.

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.
