"Wonderful experience with NC Deck and Railing. From the first evaluation to the completion of project. Corey Mitchell's building knowledge surpassed our expectations and he was able to salvage, repair and rebuild our 35+ year old deck. He has built a team of trusted craftsmen who understands his high standards and no subcontractors are used. After years of dissatisfaction with various contractors/handy men we felt like we struck gold with when we found NC Deck and Railing."

"Matt was incredibly helpful in both the planning and building phase. He communicated very clearly expectations and kept me posted when something changed (as something always changes). Will recommend to others and already speaking to about other projects!"

"Troy & his guys did a great job. They were professional in ways I can’t say I’ve ever experienced before. They were on time, always cordial, did what they said they were going to do, cleaned up at the end of the day, let me know when they were leaving & when they would be back. Troy runs a tight ship! Thank you for doing such a great job!"

have been in the trade?s business for 13 years. I have did Hvac, plumbing and electrical. I?m here to serve the customer and do the job for the right price. It?s not about always putting new -- if it can be repaired and work properly, than I will fix it. My company is based off what?s best for customer no matter what.

"LV Building Solutions did a fantastic job building a screened in porch on my deck. I couldn’t be happier! Benito provided options and was creative in making this project the best end result for me. He was easy to communicate with and was professional, timely and his price was fair. I would highly recommend him and would absolutely use him again!"

"This couple did a super job! This was the first time we had hired a cleaning service and we liked them immediately. They did everything we asked and we let some areas go because of our other needs, but they adapted easily. We'll hire them again!"

"I have a 7'X 28' front porch & I wanted a 4' deck to wrap around 3 sides of that porch. I initially received 4 quotes. Roc's quote was the lowest of the 4, which initially bothered me a bit. But I got to see pictures of his previous work and he was even willing to take me to an existing customer to see his work. We didn't get that far because I gave him the job anyway. Roc is a very likable guy and is very upfront and honest about his company & methods. Roc & his crew always showed up when expected and they always plunged in and got straight to work, many days battling extreme N.C. heat & humidity. I would like to have seen a little more attention to detail regarding the finish and trim toward the end of the job, but I really can't complain about the deck. The finished product is beautiful and we find ourselves sitting out on the porch from the evening to late at night. I got a beautiful deck for a wonderful price. Thank you Roc & your team!!"

Carpentry questions, 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. 

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

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.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
