"First rate work. Repaired the damaged part of the flooring and refinished the entire floor to match. Very professional interactions and stuck to schedule. Handled all the furniture moving and did a great job controlling dust generation - this work occurred in a 'great room' with lots of places for dust accumulation. Will be using him again for sure."

"I wish that I had asked for a quote on the project first so that I could see the breakdown. The project was twice as much as I had budgeted for. Initially I was told the hourly rate of the person providing the estimate and that it would be 1 day of work. I most likely would still have had the project done by this company but I would have planned differently."

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. 

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

There are some rules regarding how far your exterior bump-out can go. For a cantilever bump-out that avoids the need to provide additional structural support, the limit is often 24 inches. However, if a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can encompass a whole room or more. Remember that many residential properties are subject to limits regarding the total house size relating to the size of the lot. 

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.
