Customers say: True professional

"I can't say enough good things about Chris. We had a general idea of what we wanted to do, but he really helped us explore ideas that we hadn't considered before. He was a great technical guide as well; explaining what would and wouldn't work. When he was doing the work, he was always on time, did an excellent job, always cleaned up at the end of each day, and communicated clearly and consistently. He made our remodel projects painless and it was a pleasure to work with him. We really trust him and plan on working with him on future products. I would recommend you call him for any work you want done."

"Alex and his team did an excellent job repairing our siding. They found and fixed hidden rot, replaced damaged areas, and made sure everything was properly sealed and protected. Communication was clear throughout the process, pricing was fair, and the quality of work was top-notch. The house looks great again. Highly recommend them for siding and rot repair."

"Oscar provided quick and quality work. However, I was disappointed to have been charged for the cost of a full window frame replacement when the final job required only replacement of a single window pane."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

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. 

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

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.

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.
