"Nixon and his worker worked straight for 5 hours moving 4 rooms of very difficult and heavy furniture. They then went on to repair a desk and hang a very heavy old mirror. They were wonderful. They are planning on returning in the spring to do some outside garden and yard work. I now know who to call when I need anything and everything done in my house."

"Excellent work and within the quote given over the phone. I like that they charge for their work based on time and materials so it is transparent. Steve was the person who did the work and I will request him for our next project. Steve removed an outdated wood panel and mantel piece and installed drywall ready to paint. He also installed the baseboards and trim around the fireplace. We will finish painting ourselves. Below is a before and after picture"

"Exceptional work! I sent in my request for the job and they came within a day and a half, got the job done in just a few hours. They are also open to all your opinions and critiques. Their customer service and punctuality was really great. It took me and my family days and hours to try and do the job ourselves, but Mastak are pros. My doors look so good! Thank you so much!"

FAQs for carpentry framing installation projects in Newtown, 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.
