"Splendid. I was referred to LHI by an acquintnance who they have done work for and who was raving about how they remodeled their bathroom. I hired them to turn an old out of shape apartment into a unit I am now renting for $1600 a month. The tiny bathroom in tgis apartment was gutted along with kitchen. They completely rebuilt everything head to toe and did major improvements. Everything was done in house, electrical, tile, carpentry and painting were all competed by professionals. The result, an apartment that I feel bad renting out amd want to move into myself. I recomend them 10 times over."

"I contacted JA Drywall after another contractor did a horrible job installing drywall in my home. Mr. Alonzo responded promptly and visited the home to estimate the project within 24 hours. He provided me with an estimate the next day, he was refreshingly knowledgeable and his honesty and candor was greatly appreciated. Mr. Alonzo and his team began work within 2 business days and completed all contracted work early. The work was done perfectly, the walls are ready to paint. If professionalism, knowledge and a job done right is what you are looking for JA Drywall is the company to hire., an excellent experience"

"Excellent. We chose to completely gut the kitchen and redesign. Steve was immensely valuable in this. Steve's advice and knowledge really helped steer us on the right course and not make mistakes and saved us money. We worked with top notch kitchen designers for cabinets and counter-tops at his recommendation. He only works with reputable people. He knows his stuff and so do the people he works with. We put in a new floor, a new ceiling, new counter-tops with custom back-splash (which required extra attention) and of course new cabinets. The one counter-top design required custom carpentry from Steve which he did perfectly. The job started on time, cabinets came on time with no hassle, and the job finished on time. His crew is thorough, careful to details, clean and meticulous. Very professional. I highly recommend him. We are now planning our bathroom renovation!"

"Mark was simply outstanding!  I first called him from work and that night he emailed to my wife and me, a list of what documents were needed and instructions on how to proceed.  He provided several refinancing options in detail relevant to our situation.  Never did he pressure us in what we should do, but rather guided us in making a decision that would be satisfactory to us, the customer.  He was always available when we had questions or needed advice and always kept us up-to-date with the refinancing process.  He was always up front with us and there were no hidden costs or surprises at settlement, which he had arranged at our home at our convenience.  At settlement, the gentleman explained the purpose of all the documents that we signed and was more than willing to answer any questions that we needed answered.  I would highly recommend Mark to anyone who is looking to refinance a mortgage.

FAQs for carpentry framing installation projects in Thornton, PA

Professional contractors complete basement framing in three to five days, depending on the size and complexity of your space. Projects with simple, open layouts progress faster than those with multiple rooms and corners. DIY framers should expect the job to take significantly longer, potentially seven to 10 days or more, depending on experience level and available time. The timeline doesn't include other aspects of basement finishing like drywall installation, electrical work, or finishing touches, which extend the overall renovation schedule.

Most municipalities require building permits for basement framing projects. These permits cost between $1,200 and $2,000, ensuring your renovation meets local building codes for safety and structural integrity. Working without proper permits can result in penalties, forced removal of completed work, and complications when selling your home. Your local building department can provide specific information about permit requirements, inspection schedules, and any special considerations for basement renovations in your area.

For basement framing, use pressure-treated lumber for bottom plates (the horizontal boards that contact concrete floors) to prevent moisture damage and rot. Standard kiln-dried lumber is suitable for wall studs and top plates that don't directly contact concrete surfaces. The most common lumber dimension for basement wall framing is two-by-four, though some situations may call for two-by-six lumber to accommodate thicker insulation. Always check local building codes, as some jurisdictions have specific requirements for basement framing materials.

You can install drywall after framing is complete and inspected, but several important steps should happen first. Ensure any electrical, plumbing, or HVAC rough-ins are completed and inspected before closing up walls. Installing insulation between studs is highly recommended for temperature control and moisture management. Drywall installation adds an average of $3 to $4 per linear foot to your project, with painting costing an additional $2 to $6 per square foot. Address any moisture concerns before enclosing walls to prevent future damage and mold issues.
