"Josh wwnt above and beyond and did a fantastic job with our ceiling. We needed to get rid of the popcorn ceiling texture. He even helped us with some additional repairs upstairs at no additional cost. He was very easy to work with and he even cleaned the area after work every day. We couldn't be happier with the result and the price. Highly recommend!"

"We hired Genesis Renovations to build our Sunroom. Brandon and his team went above and beyond the scope of just being builders. My husband and I are both disabled veterans. They even did personal work, that we were unable to do, and didnâ t charge extra. They are Christians builders, who start each day with group prayer. People in the community drove by to look at the new addition. We received numerous accolades on the beauty and professionalism of Brandon and his team hard work. I highly recommend this company. Their prices are very reasonable for the quality of their work. I will definitely hire them again, for any future home additions."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

There are some rules regarding how far your exterior bump-out can go. For a cantilever bump-out that avoids the need to provide additional structural support, the limit is often 24 inches. However, if a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can encompass a whole room or more. Remember that many residential properties are subject to limits regarding the total house size relating to the size of the lot. 

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
