"Chris came in a timely fashion and did exactly what we discussed on the phone. I have an old window with a wood frame that was rotted through, and he was able to repair it to keep water out. He was a pleasure to work with."

"Replaced missing siding and painted foundation: Eric was very prompt in responding to my request for a quote. He came to my house on a Sunday to give me an estimate and was extremely flexible with working within my time frame. His price was very reasonable and fair. He would check in with me as the job progressed to review what had been done to ensure I was happy with the work. He and his team were very polite, friendly and eager to make sure we were pleased with the job. I would definitely use them again."

"We hired this business to fix a giant hole in the foundation at our parsonage that was caused by being struck by a car. Being a church building money was a concern of ours as well as returning to building to its original condition. I met with three other contractors and then met with Angelo and I was immediately put at ease. He was so professional and caring listening to my concerns especially when it came to the safety of our Pastor being that there was a hole in the foundation. He secured the building while we were waiting on inspections and even met with the inspectors to make sure that they were aware of all the damage that occurred. He started work when promised and even finished ahead of time. The pastor told me that her and her dog hardly knew that they were there. They worked in such a way that they didn t disturb either of them. They are truly trustworthy and their craftsmanship is unsurpassed. Looking at it now you would never know that any damages occurred. They also did repairs on a wall in the church that had water damage and they made it look like new. Everyone at Church noticed it right away. I would highly recommend Anthony and Sons. I would look no further and give them a chance to give you the type of service they provided to Wharton United Community Church. They went above and beyond for us and we are truly grateful for them."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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. 

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.
