"Do not hire Jose Arredondo or Arredondo Welding. I hired him to install a security number pad to my iron gate. He asked that pay for the materials keypad upfront so he could install and asked that I Zelle the money to his wife account. Unfortunately, I did. It is now been almost 3 weeks - he has not done the work, has not returned the money, and he refuses to communicate with me or my contractor."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

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.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

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