" Chris was very prompt courteous professional and honest. Kept up great communication during the whole process. Gave an estimated start date when we signed the contract. Ended up starting 3 days early. Finally the honesty. He gave a cash discount. On the final day paid the last of the bill. When he got home messaged me I "overpaid $1000." And made arrangements to return it."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible, but professional construction ensures structural integrity and proper anchoring.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.
