His background in architecture, design, construction, and project management sets him apart from other competitors.

"A positive experience all around! My first renovation, I was unclear about many aspects of the contracting process, let alone the actual work that needed to be done. Ryan is an excellent communicator--a fact clear from his first visit and which helped us choose him for the job--and I felt at ease throughout the project, always on top of what was going on in my house, and able to make informed decisions along the way. Indigo delivered exactly as promised, reliably on schedule. Ryan and all his crew seemed to work efficiently and tirelessly, and were always polite and respectful of our property and privacy, in what was at times a crowded little house. We got a price we consider fair, and know was competitive. And we are very happy with the new bathroom. Looks great!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Ensures proper sealing and alignment, preventing drafts and improving energy efficiency.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

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.

There are a few options if you miss a stud. You can simply patch the hole with spackle, sand it down, repaint it, and then find the stud—essentially starting over. If you don’t want to do that, you can insert one of the more robust drywall anchor options and hang your item on that, but that will only work if the drywall is in excellent condition and the anchor is rated for the weight of the item you’re hanging on it. You may be able to cover the hole with the object itself once it’s mounted, but it’s still recommended to at least fill the hole to protect insulation and prevent vermin from entering.
