"Andrew was a professional. His communication was good and he was fairly priced. Only glitch was not knowing stuff wouldn't be hauled away until next day, but in the end that did not pose an issue to the building of the new ramp. I would hire Andrew again."

"Daryl has been incredible to work with EVERY TIME! Daryl has completed many home projects with us. From building out a door frame, ordering and installing a custom door, installing a new front door, replacing plumbing fixtures as well as securing the plumbing structurally, painting, drywall repair,⠦⠦ he can get the job done. He is willing to take the extra steps (even after the job is completed) for a more personalized experience. We trust him explicitly! He even has a key to our place, just in case! Oh, his price is not only competitive but affordable! The trust factor means everything. Thanks, Daryl!!!"

"I can’t say enough on how happy I am with my new kitchen drawers. The house was built in 1960 and all the cabinets are made of solid wood accept the drawers. He built new drawers with the soft close. And also put the shelves for me to just pull out for my pots. They did great job and as for me I will give them a 5 star. Not to mention how professional he was. Looking now to get my kitchen cabinets painted. The price was better than anyone else I received estimates from."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

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 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.

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.
