"Southern Rust Woodworks has the best custom built products around. I have several pieces he has made for me, and I get asked all the time who did them and how to contact him. He can make anything you want! Or if you donâ t have an idea, he has great ideas himself. My house is basically a Southern Rust Woodworks showcase. Love all my pieces and they are excellent quality. Love all his products!!!"

"Chris built steps for my new storage shed. He came to do the job when he said he would and accomplished the task for a very reasonable, fair price. He cleaned the work area before he left. I will certainly call him again when I need his skills around my house and recommend him to others with no reservations. He did a very professional job that pleased me very much."

"Steveâ s Quality Painting did an amazing job at my house. We just bought our house and was hesitant at 1st. We called multiple businesses and when we called Steve, he answered all my questions and concerns. Steve, my wife and I all discussed the ideas we had in mind and he confidently gave me feed back and made me comfortable to proceed. He's super friendly, positive, and a family man. In all, we completed our interior painting project. In summary, Steveâ s quality painting is your handyman expert. Steven and his team were kind hearted and professional and our home came out gorgeous! So call Steveâ s Quality Painting and he will work with you, we will definitely be getting in touch with Steve and his team for future projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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. 

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
