"I highly recommend Mr. Sii Mafi and MB Construction. He is eager to help, he was quick to respond and his estimate for my short wall (and later an additional concrete pad as an additional project) was very reasonable. Just a day after submitting my project to home advisor, he contacted me and came out to review my project and give me an estimate. 2 days later he found an opening in his schedule and then completed my wall in two days. Wow! The wall was very clean, straight, and matched the wall it abutted to. I was so impressed with their work that when they suggested adding a concrete pad next to the wall to complete the area I easily agreed. This additional project was also quickly done, professionally made, and reasonable in price. They cleaned up all the construction materials and surrounding areas. Sii and his crew were very easy to talk with to get my project done. I highly recommend him and will keep his number in my call list should any of my friends need their services."

"I lived in my house for over 10 years and haven’t done much repairs. When it was time to get it ready to rent it out, Chris did an amazing job painting the garage, repairing holes in the wall, fixing the doors, repairing the stove, etc. Chris is dependable, responsive and does great work, all at a fair price! I highly recommend Chris and his team for any home repair needs!!"

"I love my new kitchen. I donâ t have a design eye myself so it was great that they had a design team available for me to assist with choices. My Project Manager was very personable, I will be reaching out in the fall to do my deck! Thanks again Beyond Builders!"

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. 

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

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.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects.
