"I have worked with Tony on several projects ranging from as small a punch list of repairs for a homeowner selling a property and as large as a full renovation where we completely remodel the entire home literally from top to bottom. Every time he is punctual and does quality within our deadlines. There is no job too small or too big that him and his team can’t handle!!!"

"We had a home inspection that pointed out a lot of electrical issues that needed addressed asap. I call Jake’s company and he made our home a priority and was very professional. My contractor was so impressed with him that he even started using him. The work was done on time and was done very well. Plus, the price charged was very reasonable-which is hard to find for an electrician these days. Highly recommended."

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.
