"I needed a WiFi Bridge from my home to an aircraft hangar I'd constructed, which was about 120 yards distance. I purchased all the required equipment with the intent of doing the installation myself. I reviewed the information on the equipment company's website and viewed several YouTube videos. I realized I most likely couldn't do it. Ben came in within 2 days. Installed the entire system and assisted with the installation of three additional security cameras. I was correct. I could not have done it. Ben did it. Made everything work great and allowed me to have great peace of mind about the hangar. "

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
