Customers say: Terrific value

"We had a wood floor refinished and had to manage the project from out of state. The communication was very good. They worked with us on a tight time frame and came through. We had to change the project midway due to unexpected finds and they worked with us on that. The floor looks very nice, so would recommend this company."

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"Superb is the word that comes to mind when talking about Connell's Lawn Care! Mr. Connell and his team did a fantastic job cleaning up my landscape and yard that had gone too long without proper maintenance. He was able to remove a ton of weeds, raked everything out of the old landscape beds and then proceeded to trim all the palms/trees/bushes on my property to get them back to looking great again! He then filled everything back in with new mulch and got everything looking awesome! I really appreciate all the hard work and how well everything turned out in the end. It's tough these days to find someone that will work this hard for you, so I HIGHLY recommend Connell's Lawn Care! I liked his work so much that I'm now using him to maintain my lawn too! Thank you!!!"

"Jeffrey did an excellent job of painting the interior and exterior of our 3600+ square foot home, by himself. We were prepping our home for sale while working against an aggressive timeline. The exterior portion of the job completely revived our home, and gave our home a lot of curb appeal. The interior work was also really good, helping us secure a contract within four days. Thank you Jeffrey!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.
