"We needed two pedestals for Elfa Carts in our craft room. Curtis went above and beyond our expectations. I was expecting a simple 2x6 frame with a plywood top. Curtis inset the top into the frame and everything was sanded and finished to a satin touch. Excellent work! I highly recommend Kuhn Custom Woodworking."

"Carlos and his team did an amazing job building out my new fence and the new patio cover, as well as laying a concrete slab for the patio. Would highly recommend them. From his work, he's gotten two other jobs in the neighborhood."

"We were wanting to enclose an area of our house to make an office. Kevin did an amazing job. He came out and listened to what we were wanting to do. He gave his opinions and advice and drummed up a quote right then and there. Kevin explained the cost of everything and the process. His guys executed everything perfectly. They even cleaned up after themselves and kept the dust enclosed into the area they were working on. We are extremely happy with our new office and look forward to using Nolen Contracting for many other projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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.

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.
