"The crew of Prime Construction did a fantastic job on replacing my old wood deck with a new composite deck. They worked through some of the coldest days of December and January building new footers, framing, and custom cutting and placing the boards. I would recommend using them for any of your future construction needs."

"GW Construction is highly responsive, capable, and reliable. We have an old cabin that needs a lot of work. Wilson has done about 15 different jobs for us both large and small. He is creative and has solved many problems. He has a nice eye for design. He really cares about the quality of his work. He goes above and beyond the call of duty to provide a good service. He stays in close communication with us, which is much appreciated. I recommend him highly."

"Leonard and Katrina at Traveling Hope have been an absolute gift to our family. They’ve done everything for us—electrical work, drywall, carpentry, and even laying an entire foundation wall—and every single job was done with excellence. Their craftsmanship is solid, their communication is clear and consistent, and their pricing is more than fair. No surprises, no cutting corners—just honest, high-quality work from people who genuinely care. Beyond the skill, they’re just good humans. Reliable, trustworthy, and truly invested in doing things the right way. We love them and are incredibly grateful for all they’ve done for us. If you’re looking for contractors you can actually trust, Traveling Hope is it. 🙌 - Sal"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
