"Manfredia's Carpentry is a top notch contractor. I did a fireplace surround with stone and also added the stone on two columns off of the kitchen to match. The quality of their work is exceptional. They are very professional and always on time. They kept me informed every step of the way. They always kept the work site very clean. I couldn't be happier with the final outcome. We also stayed on budget. I would highly recommend Manfredia's Carpentry for any job. Well done. Thank you. Debbie"

"The work was awesome, they were on time and worked every day. They cleaned up after their day was complete and were extremely easy to work with through the process. Their workmanship is top notch. I will be using them again to build a barn and eventually to build an addition off the back of my house."

"I hired Nelson and Sons to build a screened in porch off the back of my home from scratch. The entire job from start to finish including clean up was completed in less than 2 weeks. John and his sons are extremely friendly and easy to work with, They are efficient and their work is superior. They worked with my budget to build a porch that turned out beautiful and is everything I hoped for. I would highly recommend them and will definitely use them again for future projects."

"Our deck was warping and buckling and needed to be torn down and rebuilt. Matt came to our house for an estimate and explained that we could re-use the existing deck boards and railings, saving us some money. Gary, Perry & Jamal did an excellent job doing the work. They were courteous, respectful of our property, on time, and professional. The deck looks wonderful and we look forward to utilizing the improved deck!"

"They rebuilt my deck. Fantastic craftsmanship, professional, diligent workers! They came out for an estimate within hours of my contacting Angie. The bid was in my inbox that night and they started the job a week later. Very reasonable pricing too! We will be working with them again I hope!"

"Vince did an awesome job for us framing up a new door in an existing hallway, installing new drywall around the door as well as installing the door, frame, and trim. We were extremely pleased with the work and would recommend to anyone looking for similar work to be done. Vince was very communicative and matched the new door to our existing doors and trim. Highly recommend."

"Friendly prompt response by phone on initial contact. I faxed a detailed list of tasks to facilitate assigning the work. Scheduling the work was somewhat of a challenge due to their constraints and my schedule. I had three visits from two different techs. The first tech was highly skilled and professional. He came twice. However, it appeared as if the less challenging tasks were cherry-picked leaving more challenging jobs undone. For example, why not complete all the painting jobs? Two garage steps were never painted. The tasks that second tech attempted all had to be redone. Sloppy paint touch-up in one bathroom. They did not use tape or remove fixture covers for red & orange paint. He forgot to paint the wall behind the door, the nail pops were fixed but not painted and they popped again before they could be painted. He repositioned the ironing board holder that he had installed too low but, left the first holes in the wall without repairing them. Did not caulk all areas. When I contacted the company with my concerns they said that they needed to send the initial tech out to fix things that were not satisfactory and finish the job since he was their best guy but, he was booked up for a few weeks. After a few attempts to reschedule I did not call back. My work travel schedule was prohibitive in the fall, which is why I tried completing the work during the summer. I eventually hired other companies to complete the work since I believe that they did not have the skills or will to handle all of the tasks. Hired a plumber for the sink, plaster for the nail pops, electrician for light switches. I fixed the paint & caulk myself and still need somebody to stretch the carpet. In hindsight, I believe this company is better suited for a shorter list or single task project. I really wanted a handyman to take ownership and go through the house and take care of all of the outstanding little fixes. They just wanted to get paid and close the job."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

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.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.
