"What an amazing job Mike and his crews did for us. He install a gorgeous 10X20 new deck with stair. We were amazed about how professional and knowledgeable Mike is. I would recommend Prime Construction in a blink of an eye to anyone looking to re-do or install a new deck. Thank you Mike."

"The only reason I listed that I would not hire this company is because I did not hire them and do not know how their work product is. That said, the gentleman that I spoke to on the phone was very pleasant and knew what he was talking about."

"So happy to have found this team. Not only are they incredibly professional, they are really nice people, a joy to work with and they did such a great job. Communication back and forth was easy and they showed up exactly when they said the would and did exactly what they said they would do. We needed a small deck built for a shed and the shed constructed. They were able to get it done within a week of contacting them and it looks great! Will definitely be hiring them again for more projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.
