"It was a great pleasure working with Pouria and Juan. I hired them to help build a 400 sq. ft. deck, and they were able to finish it within a week at a very high quality. They were incredibly flexible with all of our requirements?don't hesitate to communicate with them if you need anything changed during construction! They are absolutely amazing and efficient. They even did some extra work around our house, which will really help us in the long run. Their pricing is very fair compared to many other groups, and I will definitely go to them the next time I need a project done!"

"We had been looking for months now on who we should hire to build our custom dream home out in the countryside but had no luck until a friend suggested his contractor called Bayside Builders. We hired them and they came out to start giving us some ideas on what we want done with our home. It was clear that this company has been doing this for quite some time because they were professional and knew how to get things done correctly. We're glad that things went according to plan because it feels great knowing that you can trust your contractor and that they know what they are doing."

"Raz and S&L Remodeling and Design were the best. My kitchen and bathroom room was a terrible mess. Professional, punctual and have reasonable pricing, and of course their work was great. I was quoted by 6 contractors before them but none felt like the right fit until this home remodeling contract came along. Finally, I am now able to have company over. The process and communication with project manager and Raz communicated well with me and my family and answered all questions and concerns. I told Raz that we are adding an extra room. So for the new year we'll have some great projects in the making. I'm excited. Thanks again SLR"

"Leo was very helpful and quick to respond. We’re happy with how our 2 bathrooms turned out. Project was completed within the time promised. Our only complaint is that the workers did not clean up very well. But overall, we’re satisfied and we’ll use them again."

"I hired another contractor who made me a disaster for not following the plans and someone recommended me to Lerma's construction who reconstructed everything again fixing all the damages and finishing my project which was fascinated with the results, they are very professional in what they do, responsible and transparent throughout the process, I would not think about hiring this company again!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.
