"Carpentry work inside was excellent. Outside renovations really fixed the rotted wood with more permanent materials. He gave great ideas how to make make it look nicer then it originally did. I am looking forward to having them build a room addition for me. They're great problem solvers, easy to contact and responsive to requests. They cleaned up well!"

"ASAP Handyman is excellent. He has done several projects for me--from repairing a hole in the roof of a shed (from a tree limb that fell), to installing a bidet, to setting up some complicated pieces of furniture. I plan to hire him for some carpentry and remodeling projects. Honest, on-time, knowledgeable, experienced."

"Mike, takes pride in his work. We hired him to fix some rotted wood around the outside of our garage and porch area as well as up near the chimney, pressure wash and paint the front portion of our home and the repaired areas. He went above and beyond in his services and we are pleased with the results. His prices are very reasonable and he communicated the status of the projects as well as completing them in a timely manner. Would highly recommend his services for repairs around your home!"

"Mack and his crew did an exceptional job on my screened porch build. We had an existing deck that he built a roof for and also screened the upper and lower deck area. I would not hesitate to hire them again, In fact I have already reached out to them again for some interior work. They also did a job for my parents and did a great job as well. To sum up my experience they were on time, had good communication, delivered quality work, and had fair pricing."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

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. 

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
