"Very courteous and professional staff at Home Genius. Was very reliable company. However the time frame of the install did fluctuate a bit. I’m glad to say I chose this company looking forward to getting more additional work with them."

"My son had begun to build a shed, but it was clear that he needed help and quickly. They found a guy to come out the NEXT day. Even better, he worked with my son and taught him how to do it properly. We felt like we got a sturdy good quality shed AND, lessons in carpentry as well!"

"J&W did a wonderful job building my brick steps and concrete walk way to the front of my home. A quick quote and a great price considering the current market for bricks and concrete. Mr. Brown went the extra mile and I will be utilizing this company next week to replace the side entrance steps. I highly recommend!"

"We are writing to share the great experience we had with LeonPro who we hired to build an enclosed deck at our house in Rockville. They handled all aspects of the project, including collaborating on the design, obtaining a permit, acquiring the materials, demolishing our old deck, and building the new one. We were impressed by how easy it was to communicate with Otari (the owner) and the construction crew. They were great at addressing our concerns and were flexible with the changes we wanted to make during construction. The construction crew were punctual (they even showed up when it snowed!), hard-working (worked from the moment they arrived until it got dark), communicative (we had the foreman's cell phone number and he would call/text whenever there was an issue), and well-informed (they made recommendations for additional features and were receptive to our questions/comments). They also cleaned up everyday before leaving for the day and kept the area looking neat. The quality of their work is impeccable and we truly feel that no shortcuts were made in completing the work. We are thrilled with the end result and would whole-heartedly recommend Deck Solder/LeonPro to anyone looking for a home-improvement contractor. We plan to use them in the near future to build a patio to complement the new deck."

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, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

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. 

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.
