"I am extremely pleased with my experience with Mr. Flynn. He was very professional came out and gave me an estimate. Double checked his estimate. Brought all the supplies tore down the old fence and posts, dug them up, put in new posts, concreting them in. Hand built the entire fence. Very good job. Excellent employee work with him. Got the job done in one day disposed of the old fence and post careful about my yard and other people’s yards that were adjacent to mine. Let me know whenever he was coming or being late. It was an awesome experience. I would highly recommend him and his company, Audubon fence and deck. I will be calling him back to do additional updates such as my gate and another section of fencing at a later time."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
