"Harvey and his team did a great job, everything looks great now and is properly installed. They were on time and completed on time and cleaned up after themselves. Harvey fixed work that was very badly done by another contractor."

"I hired Anthony after my previous contractor was always cancelling on me and not showing up. It was refreshing to have a true pro come in with 40 years experience and solve all the problems that were left in my kitchen. Anthony also had great ideas and recommendations that helped in our decision making on completing our kitchen renovation. He was very fairly priced and gave us an itemized breakdown of the costs. I would highly recommend Anthony for any project big or small. He is in my contacts for future projects!!"

"Sal and his team are thorough professional who know what they are doing. We just had them remodel two bathrooms. They finished the project on time, worked creatively around our needs and certain surprises discovered only after demolition. They suggested great, pragmatic design options. Everything came out stunningly beautiful, made to our tastes and preferences. Sal worked his magic to fit the whole project within our budget. He also threw in some upgrades we had not initially planned but made made sense during the project. His team took care of clean up after work regularly so we could continue living in the house reasonably comfortably while the work was going on. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable, accommodating home improvement contractor who ensures the customer is happy."

"Gary and his team were fantastic. They did an Addison for my elderly parents and he came when he said he would and did what he said he would. The craftsmanship is excellent. He has excellent ideas and did all the architecture himself. My parents love it as do I. They have also done a kitchen remodel for me and they are they only contractors I will hire from now on. He is so trustworthy and so dedicated. I canâ t say enough about them. Would highly recommend thorn and I will be using them and only them in the future for any and all projects"

"We had other contractors that have done work for us within our home but not anywhere near the caliber of Scott. We could not have asked for anyone so experienced in many diversified fields that Scott has to do a remodeling of a kitchen. I am so very pleased with the out come of my kitchen. It is so much more than I expected. I would recommended Scott."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

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. 

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.
