"Bridges was fast, quality work, good communication and they worked very well with their sub-contractors. When a task was completed, the next task started right away. Very little downtime. Items were addressed before they surfaced, they anticipated where decisions by the homeowner needed to occur and we made sure to keep things rolling."

"I hired Rodrigo to add some supports to my floor joists running alongside a wall where it was sagging. The floor is sturdier than ever now, which is a huge relief. He was fair with pricing and got it done in a very timely manner. Very quick turnaround from estimate to job completion. Definitely going to reach out again for further projects down the road."

"Not only was he able to come within 24 hours of contact, but he came to review the work; went to buy parts needed, and finished all within less than 2 hours. In my 20 years of hiring 'handymen' in this area, I have never had someone so kind, honest and skillful (all-in-one). Our doors are now fixed and working beautifully. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

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.

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.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
