"JB Splash is a great company to work with. Quick and competitive appraisals. Keeps you well informed of when they will be there and how long the job should take. JB Splash has remodeled our bathroom and kitchen and most recently installed our new fence and did several general contracting jobs in the house in preparation to sell. We highly recommend JB Splash!"

"JLC contracting went above and beyond to do my home addition for me. I couldn’t be more pleased with the way everything turned out. I found him here on Angie’s list. Wonderful work ethic, reliable, affordable, and these guys are so good at what they do. JLC contracting had the lowest quote out of everyone that I called and I am so pleased with the way my home addition turned out. These guys are truly the best!!"

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

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.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.
