"This was the most pleasant experience I’ve ever had. They did custom picture frame moldings on a wall based on my drawings I had sketched on a napkin, and they did both stories of my home with crown molding. They were clean, kind, fair price, honest, and above all the work is flawless. I mean in any room, any floor, any corner I challenge you to find any flaw. Completely seamless. This is the guy for your project, so stop reading and call them!"

"Perfect. They did excellent work. Very professional and very clean as well. I don't think another carpenter could have done what needed to be done as well as Carlos did. I am extremely pleased."

"Angelo was hired to repair/replace drywall damage from a re-piping. His skills and service are truly impeccable, went above and beyond to help me put my house back together and the job is so well done you can't tell the walls and ceiling were patched. Angelo is also a very honest and genuine person, I would hire him again and intend to have him do some work on my mother's house."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

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.

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.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

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.
