I am looking at finishing my basement and wanted to know, in order to
do the studding and the bulkheads, is it better to use wood or
aluminum. The contractor that I spoke to uses aluminum and he prefers
it because its easier to use. I wanted to know is wood better for
this purpose and if so why ? Cost as well ?
Much thanks in advance.
