"Aldin was a pleasure to work with. I had entire inside of our home painted. The project is was completed when promised. Whenever I had a question or concern, Aldin answered and put my mind at ease. He went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. Such a good feeling to hire someone to do a job and feel completely satisfied when complete. Will be hiring him again for a few future projects we have."

"Ani and his brother were timely, communicative and sent updates when each piece of work was done. The old pool house old building had issues that were revealed as work progressed, and Ani gave me quotes for what each repair would cost. He also helped me pick tile, explain why a floor covering of tile would make more sense than wood in the house. He painted, replaced the roof, created a vent, and created a shutoff switch for the pipe so that a leak might not happen in the future. Above all, the project was completed on time within his estimates. In addition, he was very good to work with and together the project came together very well. He was clear and direct, which is how I like working with someone. I would recommend A&K construction and will definitely hire them again for future projects."

"I hired Paul to build and install built-in bookshelves in a bedroom and to convert an old built-in ironing board in my kitchen into a spice cabinet. He did a beautiful job on both projects and I could not be happier with the work! Paul was professional, flexible with scheduling, and very time-efficient with installation. I would recommend Paul without reservation!"

"Mark and his assistant Mike were great. Mark is very knowledgeable with just about everything home building and remodel related. He installed a new vanity and bathroom light/fan, which were a challenge. Do to the age of the home and previous DIY work, he was thrown a few curveballs, but always came up with a new game plan and completed the work without issue. He is a busy guy, but always communicated well informed me when he was available to do the work. I hope to work on future projects with Mark and crew- would highly recommend"

"I had several projects done and they were completed in the estimated time frame. Frank is a highly professional and honest gentleman. His work is outstanding! He communicated all along the way. He replaced a ceiling and floor and I'm thrilled with the results of both. I would highly recommend him and will be calling upon him in the future for other projects around my home. I have already recommended him to other family members."

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.

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

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.

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. 

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.
