"I needed to have items hauled to the dump within a short time frame. Thankfully Rob made himself available to do the job the same day. I wasn't even on site. Rob communicated what he'd done with pictures to verify. He left the site looking exactly as it should. Great to work with. His price was very fair. I would hire again without reservation."

"Great Communication. Professional. Quality work. Hired MS to build a 230ft mixed material fence and a deck over my existing stoop of an entry. Couldn't be more impressed. We had a vision in mind and Mike made it happen. So impressed with the work they are now build a deck out back. Would definitely recommend."

"Hire these guys! The quality of the work is stellar , I don't say that lightly being a tradesman myself. Eddie is always on top of it, and addresses concerns right away. They are timely, and you don't feel like you have to worry when you see the care and craftsmanship in their work. I have hired other contractors who left me feeling I got duped. Casa Bella is my go to, choose this company, you won't regret it. Also if you have an idea Eddie will work with you to make it happen, That is rare."

"Jeff was great to work with, personable and knowledgeable. Our home siding trim project was a bit challenging, but he accomplished the work professionally, efficiently, and affordably. I have Jeff saved on my contact list for any future home repair needs. :)"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.
