"We hired Connor Construction to build a porch roof and railings over our existing cement steps. We were in a time crunch to get this done before our house painters were scheduled to start, and Mike was very accommodating. Even though he had to work evenings and weekends to accomplish this, he did an excellent job at a reasonable price, and finished the job with a week to spare! He cleaned up everything when the job was done, and left our house and yard in great shape. We are very pleased with Connor Construction and highly recommend them!"

"No job too big or small! Did a concrete patio over the summer and rebuilt a retaining wall. Had him back to replace an exhaust in the bathroom and level my basement. Hoping to have some kitchen work done in the near future. I would definitely recommend using them!"

"I hired this company for my project, and they did a fantastic job. The team was very organized, careful, and kept everything clean throughout the entire process. Their punctuality and responsibility truly stood out from the beginning to the end. They completed the work the same day, which exceeded my expectations. I was very impressed with the quality of their work and their professionalism. I will not hesitate to hire them again for future projects. I am also sharing some photos of the completed project so others can see the excellent results and quality of their workmanship. This company is excellent, and I highly recommend them 100% to anyone looking for a roof or siding replacement, or any type of repairs. If you are searching for a reliable and professional contractor, this is the company you are looking for."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

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.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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.
