"IMike and his crew showed up on time and was super helpful in answering all of our questions and concerns. My coworker recommended Mikes company and we were so happy and impressed by the final work. His crew was polite and always cleaned up the site at the end of each day which is a plus for us. He may not be the cheapest but his quality of work shows for it. I will be using Gingys for future projects."

"First off, we tried to find someone that could build a porch cover that would look like it was built with the house, and not just some cheesy looking after thought. It's really hard to find anyone willing to do any work these days. Ray and Don came out and we explained what we were looking for. They told me and my wife what their idea was for the cover, and said they'd email the estimate. A few days later we got the estimate, and honestly, it was a bit more than we were expecting. We had a few more estimates, some less money, but we just weren't comfortable with the contractors and their recommendations. About 2 weeks later, I called Ray again and asked if he'd be able to provide some form of a drawing or sketch of his idea so we could better understand what they were thinking of doing to our house. Ray said he had recently started using the Sketch Up app, and would be happy to come by and show us his drawing. That was very helpful, and was the reason we decided to go with Ray and Don. Once we signed our contract, the lumber and supplies were delivered 2 days later, and work began the same day. Don and Ray were here every morning by 8:00, and worked all day. Anytime they had a subcontractor scheduled, they made sure they were here on time, and supervised all aspects of the job. At the end of each day, they cleaned up the front porch area and made it look as if they hadn't even been there. With all the work done, it took about 2 weeks. Don and Ray were both extremely friendly, and made having the work done very easy. They were very conscientious about the fact that we were alway home, and if our dogs were in the backyard, they always made sure the gate was closed. I would definitely recommend Wishon Construction, and will probably be using them again in the near future for another patio cover project."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

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.
