"Steve assembled a trampoline for me in about 3 hours on a Friday morning. He was kind, knowledgeable, and communicative throughout the whole process. He broke a bolt during installation and drove to the local hardware store to replace it. He also hauled all the trash away for a small, reasonable extra fee that was negotiated in the spot. Zero complaints. Just good work. Steve will be the first person I call for assistance with other jobs from now on for sure. Thank you!"

"The driveway lady provided excellent customer service. She answered my first voicemail at the end of business the day I left it. I was scheduled for work within a few days. I was very impressed with the work quality, the time it took to complete the work, and how helpful she was in answering questions about other work we need to have done around the property. Our neighbor was so impressed that they hired her on the spot and she was able to complete their work the same day. I wish I had more asphalt that needed work because she is A+ in my book. I took the photograph from upstairs in my house and it shows my driveway and my neighbors driveway."

Customers say: True professional

"Dan was professional throughout the entire job, not to mention the great work that he did! He was able to come to our house the morning of a snow storm to insulate our sink pipes. His work truly passed the test the next day when our pipes weren’t frozen, for the first time ever in a winter storm! Dan was knowledgeable, flexible, kept us up to date on progress, and charged a reasonable rate. We will absolutely be using him again for any work on the house, and would recommend him to anyone in the area."

"Mike at Alexander Design and Fabrication LLC does excellent work and truly cares about the finished product. Mike installed three front porch posts, raised my sunken walkway, fitted and sanded a bathroom door, repaired drywall around my tub, and stabilized my front porch railing so it doesn’t budge. He is professional, detail oriented, honest, and takes pride in his work. I’ve hired him multiple times and will definitely hire him again. Highly recommended!"

Small jobs welcome

"Tim went all out to do a fabulous job on my front porch and barn posts that had to be worked on. He was meticulous and detail oriented when he had to replace or repair rotted wood on both the front porches of my 1900 house and barn supports. I’m sure it was a challenge to replicate parts of the porch as well as solve other issues. I’d hire him in a heartbeat if another project surfaces."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.
