"yes Victor was great, came out quick for estimate, once agreed on he started next day. Only b/c of cement work did it take 2 days. He replaced rotten wood siding and placed metal support post on storm damaged carport. Victor is good at his work, very detail oriented and conscientious worker."

"Overall, we are very pleased with our new deck from The Deck and Patio Company. The crew was very professional, polite, and friendly. Each day they spent the time to clean up the project site and were always willing to answer any questions we may have had. The quality of the wood, carpentry, and staining was excellent. The only drawback was the length of time (13 weeks) between contract execution and start of the work"

"After Hurricane Beryl, we contacted Angi list seeking a contractor to tear down all of the siding and install new siding. Andy and his workers were professional and did a great job. They also did a clean up as well. Any concerns I had, Andy addressed it."

"David and his father, Jose, were outstanding! They arrived on time, were exceptionally professional and I couldn’t be happier with the end result. There were no surprises, explaining every step of what they were doing and answering any question I had. I would (and likely will) use J&D Woodwork again without a doubt!"

"As a contractor (but not in the trades) I’m often on the receiving end of tight budgets, rushed timelines, and high expectations/standards from my clients. Henry excels at balancing all three of those, especially for doing such sensitive work like inside someone else’s home. I will be calling him for any woodworking moving forward."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

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. 

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.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.
