"Steve was very conscientious & personable. He installed my smoke alarms efficiently and professionally. He also helped with a few other minor electrical issues in a quick and thorough manner. Before leaving, he wanted to be sure I was happy with the work and offered that he is able to perform a variety of home repair/remodel/construction related tasks. I will definitely be contacting him in the future!"

"He has done a very good job with it, very professional, It is a rental property ha had basically installed slinging doors and also did patchwork on my drywall, baseboards, exteriors doors, and outside moldings, he actually installed things faster than I expected. His price was reasonable, clean, courteous, the tenants were very happy with the contractor, the contractor did his best to avoid dust and noise to annoy the tenants and did a professional job. No complaints all. He took photos on the work to make sure that the work was okay already and asked a few feedbacks from the tenants as well and they were very happy and has positive feedback."

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"We had a leak in our dining room ceiling because of a leak in our kid's bathroom above. We received many quotes to repair and replace, or remodel, the entire bathroom. The quotes ranged in price from $7000 to $20,000 and everywhere in between. And materials for the tub, walls and floor varied even more. Bath Doctor was not only the least expensive, they were the most responsive, really listening to and addressing our concerns. They also took the least amount of time to do the job--just 3 days and provided the longest lasting warranties on their work--lifetime on the materials which were all waterproof and low maintenance. It's been almost three months since they completed the work and we haven't had any leakage or any other problems since they fixed it. They definitely deserve a 5-Star rating and we will certainly use them again to fix our master bathroom."

FAQs for carpentry framing installation projects in San Luis Obispo, CA

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.
