"couldn?t be happier with the work this framing contractor did on my basement project. He framed the entire basement and completed a dropped ceiling, and the quality of the work exceeded my expectations. From the beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He took the time to understand the layout and made sure everything was framed accurately and according to plan. His attention to detail was evident throughout the project, from straight walls and properly aligned framing to the precision of the dropped ceiling work. He showed up when he said he would, maintained a clean and organized work area, and kept me informed of progress along the way. They completed the project in a timely manner without cutting corners, which gave me confidence that the job was being done right. His workmanship made it clear he takes pride in his craft and cares about delivering a quality finished product. Would definitely hire again!!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

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.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.
