"George listens to the customer, makes suggestions if necessary and proceeds with a contract. Said contract has a price range that he never exceeded depending on whether or not unforeseen issues occur. George renovated two bathrooms, installed laminate flooring on my bathrooms and master bedroom. He is efficient, neat and never leaves a project unless it is perfect. George will be called upon for all my future projects."

"I needed to have the old flooring removed and the new flooring put down. They team was very professional. They realized the subflooring was messed up in a section and made sure to stop and communicate so the job can be doone correctly. I appreciated that factor and was able to approve a replacement of the messed up board the great thing was they were still able to finish the job in the time frame they originally stated! I plan to use them for all jobs moving forward. Priced fair,quality work, and friendly and professional!"

"In the Spring of 2018 we hired Matt Willett to rebuild sections of our home due to mass devastation due to a Tornado that touch down in the Bethany Ct. The project which consist of rebuilding a very large deck, rebuild the master bedroom and rebuild the roof line on each end of the house where two large trees fell upon. His work was very well done, on time and on budget. Matt was a real pleasure to work with and his professionalism, skill and ability to work with a homeowner was evident. I would not hesitate to recommend Matt Willett for a construction job of this type. Matt kept a very neat and organized work site and his skillset as a carpenter were most evident. He was always on time and explained all aspects of the project. We would definitely hire Matt again for future renovations/ home improvement projects. Cassie Fedeli / Patti Baker"

"Great! Miro, is an expert at what he does. His workmanship is top notch. Best of all you could talk to him and get answers, he would even make suggestions and recommendations. He never refused. He did things on his own that he felt would enhance the project and never mentioned costs. His laid back soft spoken demeanor was a pleasure to be around. Oh! did I mention most reasonable price. We plan on calling him for all our carpentry needs."

"I bought 4 hours of wood rot replacement for 199.
We scheduled a time for him to come. I took the day off so I could be there when he came.
He never showed. Apparently I was the one appointment that was deleted when there was some kind of software issue with his Angie's list clients who bought the deal.
He apologized for the no show and scheduled the following Saturday. This time he didn't say he would come himself but that his "guys" would come - so I assume he outsourced the work. He mentioned that they could come as late as 11 as they had a job earlier in the day. He also said he would send me an email with all the details for all the wood I was supposed to go and purchase in advance of them coming. I didn't realize I was going to have to go shopping for lumber and was a little worried as I am not really familiar with this kind of stuff.
I never got the email.
On Saturday I waited for his guys to come - I hadn't heard anything, and still hadn't received the email. Around 145pm we decided not to wait any longer and went out for a late lunch.
He texted and asked where we were, that his guys arrived and we were not there.
After the no-show, the no-email and then not turning up on time I had given up.
Angie's list would not refund my money and I had to use it on another deal. I used Accurate Electrical and had a great experience ... so at least I have found my Electrical go-to out of the whole experience.

"It went very well, they started on my preferred date and worked 6 days a week for 2 weeks to complete the job. I had expected it to take at least two weeks. They were punctual, polite, friendly, and thorough. It was 20 years since it was last painted so there was a lot of prep work that was needed. They also had to remove wallpaper from 6 rooms, prepare the surface, then repaint. I was very satisfied with the results."

FAQs for carpentry framing installation projects in East Haven, CT

Professional contractors complete basement framing in three to five days, depending on the size and complexity of your space. Projects with simple, open layouts progress faster than those with multiple rooms and corners. DIY framers should expect the job to take significantly longer, potentially seven to 10 days or more, depending on experience level and available time. The timeline doesn't include other aspects of basement finishing like drywall installation, electrical work, or finishing touches, which extend the overall renovation schedule.

Most municipalities require building permits for basement framing projects. These permits cost between $1,200 and $2,000, ensuring your renovation meets local building codes for safety and structural integrity. Working without proper permits can result in penalties, forced removal of completed work, and complications when selling your home. Your local building department can provide specific information about permit requirements, inspection schedules, and any special considerations for basement renovations in your area.

For basement framing, use pressure-treated lumber for bottom plates (the horizontal boards that contact concrete floors) to prevent moisture damage and rot. Standard kiln-dried lumber is suitable for wall studs and top plates that don't directly contact concrete surfaces. The most common lumber dimension for basement wall framing is two-by-four, though some situations may call for two-by-six lumber to accommodate thicker insulation. Always check local building codes, as some jurisdictions have specific requirements for basement framing materials.

You can install drywall after framing is complete and inspected, but several important steps should happen first. Ensure any electrical, plumbing, or HVAC rough-ins are completed and inspected before closing up walls. Installing insulation between studs is highly recommended for temperature control and moisture management. Drywall installation adds an average of $3 to $4 per linear foot to your project, with painting costing an additional $2 to $6 per square foot. Address any moisture concerns before enclosing walls to prevent future damage and mold issues.
