"I have hired this company for multiple projects over the last 2 years. Electrical, plumbing, bathroom remodel, widow installation and hooking up my propane stove. I will be a return customer each year until my projects at home are done lol. Doyle's Home Carpentry can do just about everything you need done and it gets done right the first time. If it is something he can't do or something that is not worth doing, he will tell you straight up. Very honest company and I do recommend using him for your projects!"

FAQs for carpentry framing installation projects in Oswego, NY

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.
