"We contracted Do-Moore Home Improvements to completely rebuild a balcony that runs the entire width of our second story. The original structure, including the joists, had to be replaced. Kramer discussed the details with us thoroughly and paid close attention to what we wanted. He's a craftsman, and his work is excellent. He also left the jobsite very clean and free of debris. The new balcony is gorgeous! Kramer gave us a very reasonable price, and he was efficient, expert, and overall a pleasure to have working at our house. We'll be calling him for all our home renovations from now on!"

"Chris-Innovative Design Construction did a wonderful job on the patio cover and pergola that we contracted through them. Rueben, Erick and Adriel were so professional and they did a marvelous job with the installation and the clean up. I was very impressed with the attention to detail, which made this a very enjoyable process for us. I will highly recommend this company and this group of guys for any project you may have, they surely did not disappoint"

"I had a wooden fence that was poorly made in the first place by the builder of this house that was constantly blowing open when the wind started up in the afternoon I need to replace it, but I can’t do it right. This second RJ showed up head supplies with him to get the gate just closed and fortified so I don’t have to worry about it. He’s gonna be my new best friend."

"Taz is our go-to contractor, because they are problem-solvers, detail-oriented, and just generally do a terrific job on both large and small projects. At our house (at different times) Taz has done structural work for us; fully renovated our kitchen; installed a pocket door on a tiny 1/2 bathroom; fixed the walls and floor in a formerly useless closet; and, tore out a huge mess of a mechanical room, turning it into useful, attractive storage space. They deliver on time (including amazingly short timeframes) and on budget (as much as any contractor can be, given the fluctuation in material costs over the past few years). They do a terrific job of minimizing mess and displacement for the homeowner and pets. Would never use anyone else but Anthony and his talented crew. He may sometimes cost more than other contractors, but you get what you pay for - you may find cheaper, but you will NOT find better. And when Anthony does the work, he stands behind it, while others don't."

"The crew that worked on this remodel, led by Alejandro, were prompt in arriving, patient with our questions, and very responsive to our requests. They were very skilled and thorough, and completely changed our home for the better. I highly recommend this company, since it provides full services, such that plumbing and electrical are available from within the organization, as opposed to waiting for subcontractors to respond."

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.
