Customers say: True professional

"Les took on this work from another carpenter who closed their business. He quickly worked out the drawings, consulted with us regularly and was good about communicating and meeting his commitments including showing up when he said he would. The shelves fit perfectly and look great in the space. We appreciated his design skills and his attention to detail. We would absolutely hire him again."

"This man is terrific, He does excellent work at a more than fair price. He understands what is needed, makes good suggestions when needed and does what he says he will do. He stays in communication with you, so you know what to expect. He tore out an old deck and built an entirely new one. He cleans up completely. We have special needs and he understood them and really made something for us that makes our lives safer and easier. He is a kind man. I can not recommend highly enough."

"Had two projects through Jobria - porch and large pavilion. Excellent work. Everything was even better than I had anticipated. Josh listened to my vision and asked clarifying questions along the way. Him and his crew were respectful and honestly worked their tails off getting it done right. Highly recommend. The price is fair for the quality of work done. They do not cut corners and will build everything to perfection. Great crew. Amazing foreman. Honest work. Thank you guys!"

The bathroom turned out beautiful, with great attention to detail and quality workmanship throughout. The interior painting was clean, even, and professionally completed. Gustavo and his team were dependable, respectful, and kept the work area organized. We are very happy with the finished results and would highly recommend them for remodeling and painting projects."

"Much more than a complete siding job. Pergo flooring throughout the entire house, replacing 26 year old carpet. We had a new porch build with a roof fence built, another porch refurbished, inside work. After seeing the skill level we added more work we wanted to complete like tree removal, new security light, porch ceiling fan etc…we love our new oasis. Would recommend for any job big or small!"

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. 

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.

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.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

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.
