"The deck railing and stair project recently completed by Brett and his partner made my whole deck look brand new. They designed and built new stairs with sturdiness and safety in mind. The modern lines of the new railing opened up the view and tied in nicely with the existing metal gazebo. To keep the aesthetic, Brett even secured curling ends of existing deck boards that weren’t even part of the project. I would definitely recommend his contracting services and use them again for other projects."

"Ron LaMarti and Luke LaMarti are professional,reliable,and very skilled craftsmen. They were extremely easy to work with and very knowledgeable of all areas of remodeling and home repair. The deck we hired them to build for us is beautiful and so well constructed. We love it! We have requested more quotes on other projects which they will soon be doing for us. They are so accommodating to work with our schedule and just super nice people who we feel very comfortable having in our home. We highly recommend their services. They also are affordable. Hire them and you won t be disappointed! Trish Fazio."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

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. 

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry.
