"Colt Hunt and his crew are top notch! Colt responded quickly to our request for bids, came out promptly to give us an estimate, and then did the work on time and as expected. The main job was to install new doors. He was also willing to add some baseboard trim work to the job. Very professional and nice to work with and the work looks great!"

"R&D construction did the final grade and elevation dirt work in preparation for a barn built by Cleary. The work done failed Cleary first inspection. Stating that the build site needed to be within 6 inches of level from the hotspot to the lowest. After passing this inspection, R&D required payment in full. After the barn was built, every precipitation caused the interior of the building to flood. The final grade created by R&D construction sloped toward the building on three sides. by code there should be a 5% grade away from the building for 10 feet around the perimeter. This was not done. R&D construction was paid for installing concrete which also never was done because the site was too wet. And the site was too wet, because all surroundings sloped towards the interior of the building. R&D construction quoted an additional $20,000 to repair their own mistake. If the grade were done code, it would never have flooded and concrete would have been installed. Construction defect "

"DO NOT USE CLANCY! Worst experience I have ever had working with a contractor. He lied to us for months on end, misused and mismanaged our money and then wanted another $20k to continue work he should have already done. He neglected to pay his subcontractors who were then contacting my family to try and get ahold of him to get paid. The work he did do was poor quality or not done at all. We have been informed from subcontractors that he was purposely asking for lower quality products at a lower cost so he could increase his profit, despite our requests for mid-grade products. We cut our losses and fired him. "

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can use a nail to find ceiling joists, but it’s not as reliable as a stud finder, and you’ll end up with lots of small holes in your ceiling. If the nail hits a joist, you'll feel increased resistance. Mark the spot with a pencil. Repeat this process regularly along the ceiling, 16 or 24 inches apart, until you've mapped out the joist locations.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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 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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.
