"Mr. Hill and crew did an excellent job refurbishing an outdoor screened-in patio. Job included new doors, screens, paneling, and painting. Quality of work was good. Cost was fair. And they finished in 3 days."

"SRA- don’t only build sunrooms! They helped to maximize our design plans to include a bedroom and bath. Had a minor problem with the salesman. Customer service handled it quickly and completely. They arranged for the owner to handle our request. Great service and a fair price."

My name is Matthew and I’m 24 years old with a background in accounting and finance from Temple University, but found my real passion in construction. After four years in accounting, I transitioned into rough framing and have spent the last two years fully committed to mastering the craft. I take pride in being dependable, hardworking, and easy to communicate with. I genuinely enjoy the work, care about doing things the right way, and bring a strong attention to detail to every project. Looking to continue building long-term relationships with homeowners and contractors who value quality work and professionalism.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

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.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.
