"I had an amazing experience working with Mike, the owner of this company—professional, skilled, and incredibly efficient. He installed a new kitchen faucet for me, and the job was done flawlessly. Not only was the installation clean and precise, but he also took the time to ensure everything was functioning perfectly before wrapping up. It’s rare to find someone who takes so much pride in their work, and his attention to detail truly showed. Even more impressive was the transformation he did in my bathroom. He converted my single-sink vanity into a beautiful double-sink setup, complete with a new mirror and lighting fixtures. The entire space looks like it came out of a design magazine! He handled everything—from plumbing to electrical—with confidence and care. If you’re looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and extremely capable, this is the person to call. I can’t recommend him enough!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.
