"We hired James to build our new deck and we are thrilled with the outcome. James is a highly skilled master carpenter paying attention to every detail. Our new deck is the sturdiest and nicest deck in the neighborhood! We would definitely hire him again for any project. He was present in our life for only a week while building our deck but now he is like family to us. We admire his work ethic and professionalism. Everyone that comes to our house admires our new deck!"

"Eric came over to look at the job and determine what parts were needed and the vendor to use. He ordered the necessary materials, set a date to do the work. He arrived on time ready to work. There was quite a bit of manipulation of the railings to get them to fit. He kept until they were finished. Good work, very polite. Cleaned up work space before he left."

"Stuart Allum is the only contractor we use for home repair projects. When our basement flooded, we had to tear out all of the damaged walls from the floor to the chair rail. Stuart came to the rescue and replaced studs, sheet rock, molding, bead board and chair rail and then painted so that the basement looked brand new! He even came back to install shoe mold to finish our new flooring. Stuart is an excellent craftsman and completes jobs quickly. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to family and friends."

"They did an excellent job building a screen room on my deck. The finished product looks great. I would rate straight 5's if communication was better but then it's difficult for contractors to respond quickly since they are on the job all day. I would definitely hire them again."

"All Brothers painting did an excellent job on the exterior of our house. Such professionals and very polite, arrived on time every day, cleaned up everyday. Replaced some of our wood siding, painted 3 colors on the house, plus painted our porches and deck floors and handicap ramp in cedar color. Back screened in sun porch with A frame ceilings. They primed the house with oil base paint first then sprayed and back brushed entire house. Highly recommend these pros. You won t be disappointed"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
