"I don’t have one single complaint. I LOVE the furniture he built for me. Everything is beautiful and high quality and really heavy duty (I have a 9 year old that likes to wreak havoc on my furniture and stand on everything, so that’s a major plus. No worries about broken furniture for me). I get compliments on my farmhouse table and benches he built all the time. I highly recommend!"

"Mr. Gurley, called me on Tuesday about the job, came out Wednesday to look at what was needed, and on Thursday the job was done. He was professional and explained what the best product was for the job, and he even showed up early. I had called various handymen and appliance repair places, and used another app to find someone to complete the project. Besides one other handyman who quoted me 3xs as much without even looking at the job, Mr. Gurley was the only other handyman who even offered to give me an estimate. Truly grateful to Mr. Gurley and will be contacting him again for other projects in the future."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.
