"AI and his team did great job for me. Even a small job for a gutter or window trim they are willing to come to reasonable price. I replaced my roofing two years ago from a different company that charged me too much. I regret not meeting Lincoln roofing earlier and I will definitely come back to this company in the future next time I need something fixed 。"

"Matt and his team did a phenomenal job. Going into the project, my biggest concern about hiring a contractor was reliability—I had heard too many stories about contractors not showing up or following through. Matt completely put those fears to rest. He was always available to discuss any concerns and personally visited the job site to make sure everything met my expectations. His top priority was ensuring I was happy with the work. Even months after the project was completed, when a small issue came up, Matt followed through and made sure it was corrected. I had completely gutted my kitchen, and I couldn’t be happier with the results."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

A bow window costs up to $15,000 to install in total. Materials cost anywhere from $1,200 to more than $14,000, and labor is an additional $300 to $1,900. Bow window costs vary based on the size of the window and the frame material. You’ll spend more for custom features or energy-efficient upgrades, too. For comparison, bay window installation costs about $1,000 to $7,000. 

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