"Brindley was incredible! I'm not sure I have ever seen anyone as industrious and thorough. He stayed true to his estimate. He prepped the deck, replaced the weather damaged planks and spindles. Everything was done in a timely manner. I could not be more pleased. Photos available."

"My wife and I recently decided to have some interior painting done in our home and we contacted First Choice Professional Painting to give us an estimate on the cost of the job and the time needed to perform. We had contacted them because they were listed on Angie?s list. I read all of the reviews for those participants listed in the Bloomington, IN area. Brandon Hood called and we set up an appointment to view the scope of the work and give us a estimate. He showed up on time and after viewing the rooms to be painted and recommending a color scheme with a reasonable cost estimate for the job, we decided to proceed and hired him to do the work to be performed on the following Wednesday. On Sunday he called and asked if he could move the schedule up to do the job on Monday, the next day. We agreed with the changed schedule. He and 3 others, a crew of 4, showed up on Monday at the agreed upon time. My wife and I had prepared the rooms to be painted by moving small items out of the area, and also removing switch plates and outlet covers. Within 10 minutes they were at work patching holes, taping the floors, and starting the ceiling. During the day they were efficient, courteous, hard working, and all business. We found it easy to relate with them, and they asked questions before proceeding with any questionable activity. We had initially expressed some doubt that they would be able to finish the job in one day. They painted the ceilings with 1 coat, 2 coats on the walls and 1 coat on the baseboards and trim in the front entry way of a split ranch, and the living room, dining area, kitchen, and bedroom hallway. They were good about cleaning up and protecting furniture that was still in the work areas. The job was finished ahead of schedule, and within the amount quoted for the job. The extra paint for the walls and trim was left with us for future touch-up. I would unequivocally recommend them for any work that they choose to bid on. We will hire them again if we have a need for interior / exterior painting services.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

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. 

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

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.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.
