Small jobs welcome

"Richard is professional, cordial, and experienced. I appreciate his willingness to take on a small project (replacing old countertops with new laminate and tile backsplash) with as much professional attention as bigger projects. He's also good about advising what kinds of materials fit the age of the house, keeping what I'd call the historical integrity in mind. They work efficiently and quickly, checking with me as questions arose. The kitchen and outdoor "workshop" areas were tidied up at the end of the day. I worked with other contractors on a big project (significant repairs after a huge tree fell on my house six years ago) and that was an awful experience including overcharging, non-existent change orders, lack of communication, and, ultimately, poor workmanship. Richard and Trimco have re-established my faith in his profession. Trimco is a great small company! I recommend them with no reservations at all and look forward to having them do other projects for me in the future."

"While I did not hire this company ultimately, I remained very impressed that they came to the site fully prepared (they did a ton of research on my property) and were ready to go day one had we chosen to go with them. In the end, we only decided to go with another contractor due to their existing familiarity with the current neighborhood we were in however, Empirevue are a top notch professional company judging by our initial interaction and I will be reaching out to them again for our other projects"

"DVR construction did an incredible job. Bobby was the primary person that did the work and he did a great job. Daniel, the owner, is a very personable person and strides to make sure his clients are happy and goes out of the way to make sure that his clients are happy with the work. Our kitchen flooded and it was at the beginning of the pandemic when everything was shut down. Daniel worked hard to keep the project moving forward since we had no kitchen. He talked and fought with our insurance adjuster and make them understand what needed to be done compared to what they only wanted to cover. It was very nice to see a contractor fighting more for us than what the insurance company was. As for trust, we had no issues in having to leave anyone from DVR Construction alone within our home if needed. All the employees are very nice and trustworthy, which is important to know and feel as at times you have to leave someone within your home while you are gone. DVR Construction did such and amazing job that we hired them for another job in our basement and will be calling them back to do a bathroom remodel as well. The price they charged was very reasonable compared to other companies and the work, again was great."

"Ken does excellent work every time. We worked together on design elements and materials selection and he often would find sources for supplies that were cheaper than the local Home Depot. Ken has a good eye for possibilities on design or practicality during the remodel and I often took his suggestions on how to make a good plan or element even better. His work is consistently of a very high caliber at a very competitive price."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.
