"Dave did really good work, particularly with the drywall. He got back to me quickly, asked me questions when he needed to, and made three separate trips to get the work completed quickly. The reason for the B instead of an A is the cost (about $100 more than another estimate I got) and the fact that I he didn't have all the necessary tools to do the job (I had to cut wood for him to put behind the drywall and we needed to use my cordless drill to hang the medicine cabinet together). All that said, he was friendly, professional and did good work, so I would hire him again."

"Bob was great! He removed a deck from my property and I plan on using him again to build a new one in the spring. He was very professional, always prompt, and very detailed in all aspects of the project. Will recommend him to others!"

"Carlos took on a difficult project repairing and painting garage ceiling drywall that was never finished and painted properly when the house was built 50 years ago. He persevered through persistent cold weather and difficulties getting primer and paint to adhere to old material. In the end the drywall could not be painted properly. Carlos gave me a significant break on the final price as a result. He was courteous, professionsal, and honest throughout his effort. We would definitely hire him again."

"I was so pleased with Glenn and the work he did to complete everything on my list. Glenn came to my house to see our layout and to learn exactly what it was I was trying to do. He answered all my questions, and he showed me how to use the items he installed. He even called the day after he did the work to see if there were andy problems, which there were not!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

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.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
