Customers say: True professional

"The CDJ team did a great job building us a large hybrid fence (part privacy and part cattle panel). Early on, I sent Chris some photos of what we had in mind for the cattle wire panel section, and he said ?no problem!? The team built exactly what we asked for, and we were impressed by their attention to detail. They did a complete tear-down of our old fence on a Monday, and had the new one - complete with five gates - finished by Saturday, even with a thunderstorm delay. These guys are great, do beautiful work, and really know their stuff! Also, we had decided to splurge on cedar posts, because carpenter bees had turned some of our previous fence posts into Swiss cheese. They made two separate supply runs to get us the thirty-four cedar posts required, which we really appreciate. We are extremely happy with our fence, an outstanding value, and highly recommend CDJ Remodeling. And we look forward to working with them on future projects."

"Mike was very cordial and sincere. He considered our whole situation and explained very well what the job would entail. His work is awesome. Looks like new instead of 63 years old. He was able to schedule the work and get it done in reasonable time frames. There was no trace that he was here when he left. THIS is the guy for your job!"

"The handyman process went very well! Chris was able to identify the issue and was able to fix it whilst going the extra mile to make sure that it was done right. I would highly recommend this person for pretty much any home repair project you can think of!"

"Frank did an excellent job of listening to my design ideas and completing them. He brought samples of counter tops and paint choices to make sure everything matched what I was looking for. He also was knowledgeable enough to recommend buying flat front cabinets and replacing flat fronts with bead board instead (which saved me a lot of money). Everything looks wonderful! I would highly recommend him for almost any interior work on a home."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

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. 

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
