"They did a great job remodeling my kitchen. They added so much more storage space, including installing a center island and beautiful custom butcher block counter tops."

"If I could give 10 stars, I would! Building a home from afar was daunting, but hiring Ricky Sprague of Generations Custom Homes (GCH) was the best decision we made. Ricky guided us patiently, respected our budget, and kept everything transparent with his “magic spreadsheet,” showing exactly where every dollar went. The craftsmanship is flawless—trim, tile, and finishes exceeded our expectations. Ricky’s integrity shone when he fixed small issues before we even noticed, like a window alignment and a quartz countertop cut that wasn’t 90 degrees. He had it redone perfectly at no cost to us. Communication was seamless, and his dedication, honesty, and care for his customers are unmatched. Our 3-bedroom cottage feels like a masterpiece, and the process gave us complete peace of mind. If you’re building in the MDI area, stop searching—hire Ricky and GCH. They don’t just build homes, they deliver excellence."

"Sentri Homes provided the most professional flooring service I’ve ever had. The LVP installation turned out absolutely beautiful, and I was amazed at how quickly everything was completed without sacrificing quality. The crew was fast, accurate, and extremely detail-oriented from start to finish. Everything was installed cleanly, precisely, and with real craftsmanship. The entire process was smooth, efficient, and far beyond what I expected. I would absolutely recommend Sentri Homes to anyone needing flooring installed."

FAQs for carpentry framing installation projects in Mount Desert, ME

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.
