"I had this company replace a 12 step staircase and landing off my sunroom at the back of my home. They did an outstanding job very professional. It was very apparent that the owner is a professional carpenter with years of experience his communication about the project. The materials being gonna be used was excellent from the initial email telephone calls contract could not have asked for a smoother project to get completed in a timely fashion. He checked in with me daily about the projects progress and discussed options before making his own decision but any suggestion he would make was perfect for the job at the end of each day he took the time to clear up the debris from my property and take it away. I would say a true professional in every aspect of being a great carpenter as a plus he’s also a very nice person which is a refreshing change. I strongly recommend this company for any carpentry project. You might be thinking of doing."

"Homexpert Contractor, Mauricio Flavio, was great. He replaced a piece of aluminum facia that was blown off by a windstorm. But more importantly, he correctly diagnosed a problem concerning the baseboard on my siding pulling away from the foundation that other contractors had missed. He made the repair and there is no indication a problem ever existed. I am very pleased with his work and would definitely use him again."

"Ryan, of BAC Is very knowledgeable in this field. His bid was fair and within our budget. Ryan did make us aware of concerns he had with the sub structure ( which he did not build). We agreed to the work needed to strengthen the deck and we are glad he pointed out and had the solution at the same time. We would recommend BAC to anyone that needs an honest contractor.Bob G"

"Very well! So much of the wood on our porch needed to be replaced and he was very helpful in knowing and getting what we needed to finish the project. He kept us informed on the progress and asked our opinion on how we wanted things to look. All the work was done in a few days and it all turned out looking great!"

"Matt is fantastic! I hired him to do some carpentry work. I know nothing about such things, and he made sure to explain everything—what he recommended, different things he could do, why he was doing certain things—and he included me in every step of the process. In addition, he is very responsive and communicates really well and PROMPTLY! He takes his work seriously, and it shows. I’ll definitely be hiring him again, and I highly recommend him!"

"A contractor was to show up at 7 am but he was at our house by 6:45. He was ready to work, happy with the materials I had picked up from the hardware store, and went right to it. He pulled off all the siding on that part of the house (about 6' high), put up the backing board, reattached it, and applied caulk where it joined the roofline. He was done in about 3 hours. Our coupon was for 4 hours of work, which was the initial estimate but I didn't have anything else for him to do - he was a siding specialist and it showed in his efficiency and the quality of his work. Afterwards I inspected the job and it looked very good, much better than I could have done and in much less time. Every time we hire J.P. Frisch, we're reminded why we call the professionals to handle things like this."

"I've been using Ben Kulick landscapring for over three years here at our home in Legends Country Club in Eureka. Ben and his staff are total professiona. I love them all! Plus, they are so darn versatile. Not only have they handled my trimmings and bush / tree planting, but they also laid new drain lines and poured concrete in 2-3 areas. I'm not asure there isn't anything Ben and his crew can't handle. I don't hesitate to suggest you contact Ben to discuss any project you have If you have any questions for me: [email protected] Joe Yates 573 Fairway Oaks Drive Eureka, MO 63025"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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.
