ASK AN EXPERT

These are just a few of the questions commonly asked by our clients about Carpentry.

What is the difference between framing carpentry and finished carpentry?

Framing carpentry builds the structural skeleton of a project. Finish carpentry adds to the visual, decorative and functional elements after framing and drywall.

What types of wood do you use for framing or trim?

Framing lumber is chosen for its strength, affordability, and availability. It is typically sold as dimensional lumber (like 2×4’s, 2×6’s). Trim wood is selected for its appearance, stability, and ability to hold paint or stain.
