"Gary and his crew just finished the exterior of my house painted and removed and replaced rotten wood around the entire house. These guys are the real deal. I will use them again. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A CARPENTER/PAINTER I will use them again."

"We are extremely pleased with the work done by C&S. Eddie is a true craftsman, and it shows! The carport and porch they built for us exceeded our expectations in quality and price. All I had to do was show Eddie a printout of the carport we liked, and he made it happen. He and Sheila walked us through the customizations we wanted and even suggested a few more! We were so pleased that we hired them to build two decks on the back of our home. I know who to call if I ever need more construction work on my home. Highly recommend!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

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. 

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.
