"This is the second time we have hired Junior and he continues to impress us. He is super responsive and works harder than any contractor we have hired. He has high standards and ensures that work is completed with a great attention to detail. He is so trustworthy and honest; we left him with keys to our home. He goes above and beyond and is an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish!"

"The guys came on the first day to look over the work to make sure we were all on the same page.  We walked through the project and quote they had provided.  After that, they got to work on the repairs.  It took a little longer than that predicted, but I'm very happy with the results.  It's hard to pick out where the plumbers cut the holes in the drywall to access pipes, excellent work.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

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 primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.
