"Handy Dominick is very experienced and professional contractor. I had an old apartment and he renovated the apartment from scratch. I was so pleased with the quality and timing of the job. He was very clean, organized, on time. He is such an honest and true person always suggesting the best for the outstanding outcome of the job. The price he charged me was average to high but very worth it for the quality of results he provided. Dominick completed the job on the same time frame he quoted. He is very punctual and precise with his work. I highly recommend Dominick and his crew."

"Arnaldo was the only pro that responded to me and I am thankful he did. Arnaldo was/is (the project is no finished yet - waiting for materials) one other the most honest and truthful contractors I have ever dealt with. I had extensive water damage to a room that had to be taken to stud inside and out to repair the damage. Arnaldo always presented multiple options as we discovers more damage and I felt he was working on his home as he was performing the repairs. He, and his assistant, were/ are conscientious, neat, organized, and communicate throughout the process. I highly recommend Arnaldo Duarte. We will have Arnaldo back to perform more work after this project. Donâ t make the mistake of not hiring Arnaldo."

""Multiple projects involving deck, siding, outside trim, soffits, chimney, light fixture, and carpentry. The pricing was very reasonable, there wasn't any waste (as some materials were able to be re-purposed) and they did an excellent job. They showed up on time, were very efficient, did great work, and thoroughly cleaned up upon completion. Gary is very accommodating and responsive. I recommend him highly!!!!!"

FAQs for carpentry framing installation projects in Fairfield, 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.
