"First let me say this was one of the best experiences I've had with a contractor. Period. Work was done on time, on budget, look amazing, and Tom is a joy to work with. We've dealt with a lot of contractors in the last 12 months while completing a home addition. Most of them were terrible. I had to babysit every step. Not the case with Tom and AAA Concrete. Everything was done thoughtfully. Everything was done correctly. He asked pertinent questions. And brought everything in on budget. I can't recommend him highly enough."

"Chris and his team are as good as it gets. They are everything you want in a contractor: honest, fair, on time, hard working, accessible, reasonably priced, etc. Prodigy has expertise in hardie board and cedar siding. They completed the job in 3 days when I believe it would have taken most crews 1 or 2 days longer. Chris communicated with me all along the way and never left me guessing about anything. This is a first class business and I highly recommend them!"

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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 best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.
