"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."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.
