We are a full-service restoration company specializing in smoke, fire, water and mold damage remediation. We also do carpet and air duct cleaning. We work with all insurance companies, and do anything from small residential to large commercial losses. We are also expert at working with government and academic institutions.

"Not a good experience at all. Had to callback to insulate behind master shower stall, they didn’t insulate behind the cupboard, they installed new windows and hid 1/4” gaps around them which let water pour in when it rained& did not fix. They asked me to talk with Dunco heating installer to change anything, said we could use an extra vent into the basement bedroom, it never happened. The overseeing of many issues in the home was terrible. They took all the things from the home and “cleaned” it when we didn’t want it at all. They “miss placed “ my weight set, which I had seen in their warehouse. Lastly, they had a final increase of charges to my insurance company. Some few thousand dollars! A horrible company. Do not use them! Your insurance company will know about their shady tactics. Listen to them."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

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. 

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

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

DIY is possible, but professional construction ensures structural integrity and proper anchoring.
