"Zac pressure-washed my house, my front porch, and my sidewalk. He came to my house the week prior to the work to review what was needed; he then sent me a contract, explaining in detail what he recommended. On Monday, when Zac did the pressure-washing, it was brutally hot, in my opinion, yet he did the work, and it was superb! When I got home from my job, I circled my house twice, smiling with each step, as I reviewed the quality of his work. I certainly recommend Zac and Stick's."

"Their quote came in a bit high but agreed to match the price of another quote. We supplied all the screening and spline. The workers did a great job after I had to instruct them on how to install the screen since they were unfamiliar with the framing system. The screening was installed correctly and straight. The job was well done. Pricing reasonable."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

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. 

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.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.
