"Sawtooth Services replaced the entire roof and repaired past storm/tree damage on my 100+ year old farmhouse. They did such a wonderful job! When I was not able to be on site, they were in contact with me during the entire process. I couldn’t be more pleased with their diligence, ethics and consideration while they worked their magic. I’ve had positive feedback from my neighbors about the work they did, and how beautiful the roof is now! They quoted me a very reasonable price and finished right on budget!! I will not hesitate to contact them again when I’m ready to schedule some future window and door repairs. They’re the BEST!!"

"I gave him two stars because part of the work he did was good, but other parts not so much. He came back to fix it but even thou it looks better, it does not look very professional."

"Excellent, no problems. My car was new the first year I used the service and there has never been any damage during the transports. The men picking up and delivering the car have always been pleasant and cooperative. Both Ely and Guy at United Transport has been highly responsive to my needs. I would highly recommend this company."

FAQs for carpentry framing installation projects in Old Town, 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.
