"Mr. Moser was very professional, responding to our emails in a very timely manner. He showed up with the crew on the first day of the job and they actually began the work while it was snowing! The crew returned the next two days and were great. They were very personable, professional and they did an excellent job. Even when I asked for something extra, they provided it without question. We love our new deck!"

"This was the second time I have remodeled a bathroom and Heldt construction company did an amazing job. On the initial consult, they took the time to discuss all of the possible options for the remodel. They brought some ideas that we hadn’t thought about that were super helpful. They were a great sounding board throughout the process that helped define our ideas. We really appreciated the attention to detail. I love showing off the finished product every time someone comes over. Highly recommend!"

"Rob was very professional. He explained in great detail every step of the work he preformed. I am a customer who likes to know how my money is being spent, and he made me feel more than comfortable with every dollar spent. The deck he has built for me is absolutely beautiful. I am very happy with his work. I would highly recommend this company for any type of construction needed. His company was recommended to me by my co-worker whom also had work done by Rob. He went above and beyond to build my dream porch!! Once again BIG THANKS TO COX CONSTRUCTION ?️"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

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.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
