"My construction job went extremely well. Melissa and James are GREAT to work with. They are responsive, friendly, accommodating, and their work and staff are awesome! I would definitely call them in the future and I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone. I am a tough sell on most things and they won me over. Unfortunately contractors get a bad reputation due to the nature of the business however, they are the direct opposite. I can’t say enough my home looks brand new. Attached my photos are before and after. The burgundy shutters is the before picture and the black shutters are the after pictures."

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.
