"My wife has an antique telephone table that’s over 100 years old from Germany. It is the only family heirloom she had left. It was damaged in a move and I hired a carpenter from Restoration Hardware to come and repair it. He repaired it incorrectly, used glue instead of nails and then blocked my number after he screwed up! Out of desperation we called Wilfredo. Wilfredo was there in a day, repaired it on the spot and secured a priceless treasure! At the end of the day, carpentry is a skill that you don’t want to compromise on. There is no such thing as saving money when it comes to carpentry so you’d better do it right the first time with someone who knows what they are doing, and that is Wilfredo!"

"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.

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.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

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. 

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.
