"Jason was fabulous to work with. His pricing was well under some of the General Contractor’s I found. His work was impeccable no problems with it. He’s also worked on my deck, building a firewood stand, fixing fences, and general maintenance around my house for several years now. Can’t go wrong with Jason!"

"I hired Thomas Hickman to rebuild my deck, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. He works alone, and his professionalism, discipline, communication, and attention to detail were clear every day he was here. He completed the full rebuild in four days using treated lumber and quality materials. He brought the deck up to code, installed proper joist anchors, and pointed out that the original deck had been built with untreated wood. The difference in workmanship is obvious. Mr. Hickman delivered top‑tier work and never cut corners. Several neighbors stopped by during the build and asked him to quote their decks after seeing the quality of his work. I’m fully satisfied with the result and recommend him without hesitation."

"Professional workmanship, ethical experience-based evaluation, exceptional customer service. Evans LLC, Inc. quickly responded to our request on “Angie’s” and asked for photos. Within 48hrs. a project manager arrived, patiently discussed our needs/concerns and made recommendations. He left us with a chart to select a paint colors. Our deck was restored using new wood in affected areas rather than totally replaced as some companies had suggested. Water damage on the bottom of an entry door frame was repaired rather than replaced. Kudos to Evan’s expert carpenter/painter. Our gutters and garage door glowed after pressure washing rather than painting. We decided to repaint our front porch railings and columns; a few years ago a previous painter did a poor job. We are pleased by our exceptional experience with Evans LLC, Inc. and are eager to “pass the word” to our family and friends."

"I have used SSI Construction many times over the years. The owner, Shawn, is always friendly, responsive, and professional. SSI has done a great job for me and my family including installing a new PVC privacy fence, installation and service of our furnace and AC, rebuilt our deck, and completed multiple painting projects for us. They are a one stop shop for us and give us great prices. Highly recommended!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
