"He, and an associate got here 10 minutes early. They have erected the type of ceiling storage before! The work was completed in about an hour ( the instructions said it would take 2-5 hours). Great job, good guy! We put all our Christmas stuff up there this afternoon."

"Tammy and David are wonderful, kind people who are expert in what they do! I met them at a time when I needed a kitchen remodel. My new refrigerator was lonely and needed cabinets around it. I explained what I wanted and, most important to me, they listened! I also had a cabinet that enclosed the old frig...I wanted that one to house my microwave on the upper portion with slide out shelves on the lower. As a matter of fact, I wanted sliding shelves around the new frig too. Later that evening, Tammy sent a computer graphic of the final product after I asked for a change in design...I approved it and they were on their way! Tammy and David had the necessary information and promised two weeks for installation to occur. Exactly two weeks from our first meeting, they began the installation; a day later, it was completed! The cabinets are absolutely beautiful, a testament to their expertise! I am beyond ecstatic every time I see them! Additionally, I should mention that my home is old with floors that do not always demonstrate the word level! They compensated for that in their design; in fact, there was still a slight problem with the refrigerator after the install...it was leaning backwards. I texted them about it. They came over, after some very busy hours of working on another project, to make sure the frig was level. When David said that they weren't leaving until this problem was solved, I knew I had chosen the best people. The problem was corrected and I couldn't be happier. Besides being incredible carpenters, they are good, caring people! They make a great team...I wholeheartedly recommend them! Thank you Tammy and David!"

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.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

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. 

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.
