"Absolutely one of the best experiences we've had with contractors. The quality of workmanship is beyond what was expected, and I was expecting a great job! Instead we got a fantastic job! Ray is thoughtful, kind, fair and flexible. We will definitely be calling Ray again next year to do some inside painting for us! Thank you Ray and all of the workers who helped our "perfect home" come true!"

"We had a moisture issue with our skylights in our vaulted ceiling.  After talking over several options, decided that a tear down and closed cell spray foam application was the most permanent solution to this problem.  We met with several companies about the job and ran into an issue getting a comfortable feeling with each contractor until we met Paul.  The job required a tear-down of the ceiling, the batt and cellulose insulation, spray foam application, some shims on the rafter for the new drywall to replace the thickness by some previous foam board, drywall, texture, and then multiple coats of paint and primer.  There were a lot of angles around the skylights as well to top it off.
When we met with Paul he went through the steps he would take to complete the job.  He talked a lot about the prep work and what that process entailed (an important step for us since we just repainted the walls, installed some bookcases, and put in new hardwood floors) and most importantly, instilled in us a sense of confidence that he could and would get the job done.  The job was not scheduled to start right away due to the cold weather so our confidence in Paul was demonstrated by his follow-up and follow-through when we were ready.  It was a good feeling for us, as in the past we've had contractors bail out after waiting a period of time and also change their quotes.  Paul was true to his word.
We are thankful for the diligent prep work.  The house was closed off in that section and it was like bomb had gone off inside of it.  The blown-in cellulose was everywhere and then when the drywall dust came, you had to wonder if the finished product would ever look like it used to!  The crew was very respectful and they really busted their backs getting the job done.  My wife felt very comfortable with them in the house with our two little kids and we even felt comfortable leaving the house to them while they worked.
When the process was finished, my wife remarked at how it looked as if nothing had ever happened!  We were very appreciative to Paul and his crew for the work that they did.  They showed great accountability and service and we got a good sense of their integrity.  We are very thankful to have found him and we will be using him for future projects.

"He did all work quickly, professionally, and at a very fair price. I was extremely pleased with the several jobs he was able to complete for me in just 4 hours (this includes him driving to Home Depot for all of the bathroom parts) I will definitely hire him again, fantastic job!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

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.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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.
