"This was our second go with Stan - in early 2018, his team converted our "bonus room" into a bedroom, bathroom and a study. We were so impressed by his work quality and responsiveness, that when we needed to replace a rotting wooden deck with a new Trex one, Stan was the first one we contacted. His visit for planning a deck install quote was like the previous visit - it took only 5-10min with general questions on what we'd like, and a detailed quote (with line items) came in an email. Price was very reasonable - not the cheapest, but very reasonable, and as we trust Stan, we hired him to do the deck as well. This work included demolition of the deck (Stan agreed to let us do part of the demo, and gave a discount on the quote for that), framing and installing the deck. After the initial deck frame, we realized we were a bit too greedy with the deck size.. it was too big! We asked Stan to adjust the size down a bit, and he did it quickly, with little extra cost (the effort needed for adjustment was compensated by the lower cost of Trex material for the now-smaller deck). The final deck size was 20ft by 24ft, using Trex Transcend (the highest-tier Trex composite decking) - the full deck work was $25,000 of the project total of $32,000. In addition to the new deck, we asked Stan to also extend the backyard fence around the deck, so we would have more yard space for our dog. Stan's quote included that one as well (for about $3,000). In addition, we asked Stan to install a barrel sauna (from Costco), as part of the larger project - this would include electrical hookup for the 8kW heater. Initial plan was to install it onto the deck, but Stan suggested a different location for better privacy and more deck space. As a result, his team built a small wooden platform next to the deck, and installed the sauna on it (this was $4,000, with us providing the barrel sauna). I've included pictures of the deck, the new larger fence and the sauna. As before, Superior Building Concepts work was impeccable, and they were flexible in timelines, preferences, changes etc. We've kept recommending him to others, and everyone has been happy with Stan's work. We'll definitely have him do more projects as well, I would highly recommend Superior Building Concepts for any contractor work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

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.
