"I was buying a new house, the home inspector had some questions about the attic joists and suggested I have a professional take a look at them. I needed it done quickly and I called three contractors. Matt from MMP was the only one that called me back the same day and agreed to come look at them the next day. He showed up on time, suggested a remedy and gave me an estimate. After buying the house I had him complete the work. It was done as promised in a very tight and dirty attic space, they cleaned up before leaving. I also chose Matt to replace my roof after getting three estimates. The crew did the complete job, chimney flashing, ice and water shield, small roof repair and venting channels in the attic. Clean up was great, no mess left in the yard. He was not the lowest estimate but all the work was done without any additional charges. I was very pleased with the results."

"On time, on budget and excellent workmanship. Subcontractors we're top notch, especially their electrician who went the extra mile and then some to satisfy. Will definitely call them first for next project."

"When you find a great contractor, don’t let them go. ;). I hired Tim to build a screen porch under my deck but added several projects as I recognized the high quality of work and attention to detail from his crew. In addition to the screen porch, they built a deck extension - so nice that I decided to have them replace the existing deck, installed a basement slider and replaced the door, installed a new fence and built a shed. Tim was responsive, open, honest and receptive of my requests and additions during the project. Great experience working with Tim and his crew: Dan, Brian, Eddie and Ben. Great job on all the work - I’ve received many compliments from neighbors and guests on the work you did! I can’t recommend Tim and his crew enough."

"I had such a great experience with P Jordan Construction! I needed some repairs done on my back porch, including replacing the stairs, fixing a rotting footboard under the door, and reconnecting the railings to the house. From start to finish, the process was smooth and stress-free. Parker communicated clearly, showed up on time, and had everything finished in just a couple of hours. On top of that, the pricing was more than reasonable. I really appreciate his professionalism and quality of work. I would highly recommend!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Steve Andrews Construction is everything you would want, hope for, and desire in a professional contractor. We hired Steve for a full kitchen/dining renovation (down to the studs and sub floor), tiling of a 3 season porch, and the replacement of 2 entryway doors. From our initial consultation Steve was on time, concise, reasonable, organized, thorough, and attentive to details. Qualities that persisted through out the 8 weeks of the project(s). Steve's quality of work, attention to detail and unwavering standards are of the highest regard, he is a true craftsman in his field. He was always on time, cleaned up after himself daily and kept all stock, supplies, tools, and equipment for the job neat and organized. I can say that my experience was remarkable, enjoyable, and 100% positive. If you are to go under contract with Steve Andrews Construction, you will have a contractor for life, as I do."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
