"I am so glad I went with B. Broussard Construction. I had previously tried to hire another contractor but he never showed up. After a few weeks of that contractor not showing up, I decided to go else where. That is when I found B.Broussard Construction. They got right to it so quick and it didnâ t take them but a few days. I did not get a chance to meet Brad in person but my mother did. I was informed he was very kind and all around good man. I was very impressed with their work, the timely manner it took them to complete it, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to renovate their home. I would definitely use them again in the future for other projects! God Bless :)"

"It went better than I expected. I wasn’t charged for work not done even though it was in estimate. Sometimes you just don’t know what damage is in the wall until you take it down. Blake was very honest from the start and didn’t do any unnecessary replacements. Job was done very professional and I would hire again in a heartbeat."

"Danny with Lifetime Roofing & Construction has a very professional crew. They were in and out in one day so we didn't have to deal with many disruptions or any loud noises. They did great. I'd recommend them for any roofing, remodeling, or construction job you have."

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

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.
