"After purchasing an Angie's List Deal, I received the measuring kit in the mail promptly. The template and instructions provided to draw my split table top and each of the leaves were easy to use and understand. I mailed the completed materials and received the table pads very quickly. The table splits in the middle to allow insertion of up to 3 additional leaves. The table also has 2 drop leaves. That's 7 pads. All fit perfectly. I have used them on the table for family parties (not every day) and they're durable and built to last. I keep them in the box they arrived in to protect them when not in use. These are a worthwhile investment."

I contracted with Siding Repair Systems (headquartered in OFallon, MO) in June 2015 for the removal and replacement of the siding on my two story house in Golden, Colorado with Certain Teed hardboard siding (8" Hardie Lap Color +).  The estimate was for 2458 square feet of siding, 330 feet of soffit/fascia and 235 feet of 5" gutters and downspouts.  Mr. Cory Feco, principal/owner, met with me to provide contract details and costs in late June 2015 prior to signing the contract.  The installation window specified in the contract was a starting date NLT August 15 and a completion date NLT Sept 21.  The contracted cost of the job was just under $ 26,000 and a $ 1,000 deposit was provided to get the job scheduled.  The contract specified a payment of $ 6,780 (20%) upon material delivery, a payment of $ 7,780 at halfway completion (30%) and the balance upon satisfactory completion of the job. 

Siding Repair Systems called on Friday, August 21 and said that a crew would show up to begin the work on Monday, August 24.  The crew showed up as promised on August 24.  Branch Manager Paul Dickens reviewed the work plan with me that morning.  The siding materials were delivered that afternoon.  The three man crew immediately commenced removal of the old siding.  Project Coordinator Cash Stricker showed up that afternoon to check in and see how the work was proceeding. 

The three man crew was diligent in their work.  They showed up promptly every morning, worked hard and kept the jobsite (my yard) clean and organized.  Likewise for the painting crew (for painting of the fascia) and the gutter crew.  The attention showed by Branch Manager Paul Dickens and Project Coordinator Cash Stricker was timely, appropriate and greatly appreciated. 

I would recommend this company without any hesitation.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

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.

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. 

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
