"I contacted Nathan and he was quick to respond and we set up a time to measure. Within a week he had the rack done and sent off for powder coating. I am really happy with the job and it looks great. He has plenty of options to accord to your needs and will put together some solid stuff for you."

"Broke the aluminum handle on my outboard motor had Justin weld it back up. Turned out great, I dropped it off at his house. It was a quick turn around and delivered it back to me. "

"I looked everywhere to try and find someone that could build a Murphy bed for me (I had the hardware kit) and finally, I found Chris. This has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish! The communication was excellent. We talked over what I wanted and he made it happen. He also gave me some options that allowed me to save some money which I really appreciated when material prices kept going up. He was always considerate of my time as we tried to maneuver through my continually changing work schedules, etc. Honestly, I am so thrilled and it is even better than I imagined!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

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. 

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.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.
