"I had had two small projects that I needed done; repair a screen in a screen door that had torn open and a wooden gate that wouldn’t close shut anymore. I met Chad durning the week and he told me how he was going to make the repairs and the approximate cost for each project. Chad was very professional and accurate on how long the projects would take and his quote. After he completed the project he had me inspect the work to make sure I was satisfied with what he did. I’ll definitely hire Chad for more projects I have around the house. So glad I was able to find him on Angi."

"While doing some remodeling we noticed that the exterior door frame to the back yard was completely rotted. So of course the wife makes a honey-do-list and the husband, try’s fixing it. It didn’t work out as planned and had to find a contractor to come fix the job. After several calls, JT’s was the first one that could come out the exact same day!! So thankful! And he didn’t charge an arm and a leg! Hopefully we won’t have to, but would definitely contact him again if needed :) he is the first person I would call if you are reading this comment! You won’t regret it!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
