Customers say: True professional

"We have an old house built in the 1920s and wanted to completely gut the bathroom, with new tilework both in and out of the shower, new plumbing and electrical fixtures, and a total closet remodel. It went great. I bid the job out to three different contractors, it was immediately obvious that Hector was the most qualified. He had great suggestions that showed his experience. I was also pleased to see that his price was very competitive. Throughout the job he was responsive and helpful, always keeping me posted on when things would get done and what to expect next. He stayed pretty close to the initial timelines that we talked about the. The work itself is extremely high quality, and that included detailed tile work, as well as plumbing and electrical. I couldn't be happier with how this project went. I have two other bathrooms that need to be renovated, and Hector will absolutely be the first person I call when I'm ready to start work."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, 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.

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.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

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.
