"The first thing George did when he assessed my needs was to explain how I could save significant money. Whereas I thought I needed both a new main door and a new storm door, he explained how I could repair my main door cost-effectively. That tip saved me at least $500 - $750. I purchased the storm door on my own, and he then installed it. The door is in an awkward location on my house, which made for a very difficult removal of the old door and frame and equally challenging installation of the new door. He had to build out the frame a bit, and he also primed and painted the brick mold to account for the difference in the way the new door frame fit.
During the installation process, George discovered that the doorbell would no longer fit in its original location. It was very old, rusted, and cracked. It therefore didn't survive being removed. He went out and purchased a new one and installed it in a new location. It looks great.
When all was said and done, the new door looked as if it had always been there. There were no gaps, marks, or signs of a previous door. Also, George cleaned everything up and took away the old door and all of the packaging for the new one.
I would recommend hiring George for your home improvement project.

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"Beautifully. Matthew was able to remove and rehang the older windows which now open and close in their tracks perfectly. It wasn't straightforward as the house has shifted some since they were installed but Matt was able to find solutions, rather than discarding the old windows and installing new. He was always on time and stayed within the agreed budget. I met him when he did a fabulous job on our neighbors' porch and front steps. HIghest possible recommendation! 5 Stars!"

"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.

"A&A Painting and Carpentry is run by Roland and his team of workers. The work was very professional and high quality. Taking the old stain off along with cleaning mildew the siding took a few days of effort, but the team was able to create an generally even appearance down to the original cedar shingle color. New stain looks great and we are expecting to get 10-12 years of protection from it. Trim paint looks perfect - all windows, deck railing, roofing under exterior porch. Rolando and his team re-stained our large mahogany front door - which looks much better than before. He even did this at no extra cost. Carpentry work was very professional and Rolando's team did this at a fraction of the cost I was quoted from others. The price from A&A was very competitive. I had 4 quotes, 1 was 80% higher, 1 was 40% higher and the other was the same (Rolando brother). I went with A&A as Roland is very responsive and he would get me on the schedule quickly and get the work done before mid-October. When looking at cost of the work, I looked at the size of the project (large) the value A&A provided was the best I could find. Siding stain looks great - natural cedar color is darker than original siding stain and we like this color a lot. All trim work looks perfect - it's great to have the nice satin white trim on the whole house looking so bright. A&A Workers were friendly and cleaned up each day. They were at our house for nearly 2 weeks and showed up every day about 9 am and worked through to 5-6 pm."

FAQs for carpentry framing installation projects in East Haven, CT

Both steel and wood can last over 100 years with proper care. However, wood could rot or warp when exposed to moisture, whereas galvanized steel is rotproof, insect-proof, and much more fire-resistant. Steel is friendlier to the environment as it doesn’t require cutting down trees, and the frame can be recycled. The energy-efficiency rating of metal stud framing can be higher than conventional wood construction. Metal studs are easier and quicker to install.

Whether you’re using wood or metal stud framing, follow the “16 on center” rule, meaning you should have a stud every 16 inches. A 20-foot wall spans a total of 320 inches. This works out to 20 spans of 16 inches, plus one starting stud, for a total requirement of 21 studs to frame a 20-foot wall.

Drywall installation costs $1.15 to $2 per square foot on metal stud framing or $2,300 for an average 2,000-square-foot house. The total cost for metal framing and drywall ranges from $20 to $30 per linear foot. Metal frames often seem light, but they can be exceptionally strong once drywall or sheathing is attached.
