Dan’s Superior Cabinetry was created by Dan Schreier, a third-generation cabinetmaker with a passion for woodworking. Dan spent his years as a young boy in St. Paul, Minnesota watching his grandfather build cabinets, when quality was of the essence and work was done by hand. Dan then became a cabinetmaker in his father’s cabinet shop, starting out as a teenager sanding doors and sweeping floors, to becoming lead foreman of the shop. It didn’t take long for people to realize Dan was not an average cabinetmaker. His eye for detail and ability to build anything that comes his way with exceptional speed and outstanding quality set him apart from the rest...

"After pricing at many local places from big box stores to specialty builders Dan offered the best quality for about the same cost. Other places upcharged for all the extra details that Dan included. The quality of his work is high. It is a beautiful vanity that is very well made."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.
