Customers say: True professional

"Simply stated, the best possible carpentry service you can hire. In building a large deck off of the back of my house (project with a countless variables), Pat at Steadfast Carpentry worked to complete a design to my exact wants that will continue to impress everyone who sees it for decades. Pat demonstrated a deep knowledge and care for well-built and beautiful woodworking, and was able to exceed any expectations of build quality, cost, and aesthetics, whilst working safely and within the constraints of our town codes. I cannot overstate how friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and diligent he has been throughout the entire process. I am overjoyed with the final product, and can personally assure anyone looking for a carpenter that you have found the gold standard with Steadfast Carpentry. It is a true rarity to find the affordability, knowledge, and quality at this level."

"We had Supreme Pro Construction and his crew build our deck in our townhouse complex. Our deck was old and rotting. Supreme Pro Construction earned their name by doing a fabulous job reconstructing our deck in Trex. He was great with the building dept here in Wayne and submitted beautiful drawings for us. Supreme Pro Construction and his crew did a beautiful job. Start to finish and at a reasonable price. I would highly recommend Supreme Pro Construction!"

"I am very happy to provide a review for MC Construction, who built my 16x20 ft. deck. Mandi and his team were extremely professional, meticulously thorough and took great pride in the work that they were doing. It is truly commendable when you could see someone who takes such interest in the work that he’s doing to ensure complete and total satisfaction for his client. He did a wonderful job. The price was very reasonable especially when compared to other quotes. I cannot say enough of his work ethics. He was always on time, communicated his progress along the various phases of the job. At the end of each day he would leave the job site clean and ready to start the following morning. I would highly recommend him without any hesitation."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

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.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.
