"We hired Christian to redo our deck and it was an INCREDIBLE experience. We had some unexpected additional repairs (rotted wood) along the way that he communicated through and we got it done! we had a tight deadline and he crushed it. The deck is beautiful and well made and he went above and beyond with other things we needed (hauling and screening our porch). I 12/10 recommend him for any building or repair projects. He will be helping us with our property from here on out!"

"Was able to schedule very easily and quickly! Roger and his crew did an awesome job with removing my TV and mount, and hanging a flush-mount picture TV. They also came back after I got another part to install the connect box (for Samsung frame TV) in the wall so I’m 100% cord free! They did a fantastic job and I look forward to using their service again in the future!"

"Twin Timber Decks is two brothers who completed our deck. It took them under three days to demolish an existing (old) deck, discover and replace some wood rot on the side of the house and build a new deck. Their workmanship is superior to any I have previously experienced! And, I've worked with other teams throughout my life (60 yo). In addition to their knowledge and excellent skills sets, they seemed to truly enjoy the work and take pride in delivering a quality result. Their cost was reasonable, and the value they provided for it exceptional."

"Mike did an incredible job. Honest guy at a very reasonable price. We were in the middle of a job change and having a new baby so I really didn't have the ability to manage the day-to-day progress. Mike's team took care of everything and we now spend all day out on our new porch!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

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.
