"Bryan, the owner, is an outstanding businessman and craftsman. He is punctual, accurate in his job estimates regarding cost, material, and skill to accomplish the task. About the only thing negative is that he's book up quite a bit into the future so be patient when it come to scheduling. But, if he says he will do the job you can be assured he will do it and it will be worth whatever wait has to be endured."

"Alex, Eddy, and all the guys did a wonderful job with this deck / screen porch build! They were very polite and straightforward with their pricing and services. I honestly do not believe anyone could've done this job any better. Feel confident about hiring these gentlemen and know you can trust them to do the job right. They take pride in their work and their reputation, and it shows in the quality of work they provide."

"Josh of Shepherd’s Hammer did an amazing job for our home. He installed a fire wall and fire door in our garage, as well built a new back deck. Both jobs were great. He was always on time, completed the job as planned, on budget, and kept us updated on the projects as they were in progress. Exceptionally pleased with the work. Already planning other projects around the house. Highly recommend."

"They did a good job. I was just hoping it would stop my wood floors from creaking but they are worse. Overall believe the work done will be good for the house support though"

"Mr Laney was very polite showed up when he said he would be there and his prices were comparable to other similar businesses. I have used his services on 2 jobs now. One small acre yard and a large yard with garden spot/ pasture with a pond that had to be bushhogged."

"Absolutely phenomenal! Luis and his crew were polite, honest, and professional. My husband and I have never experienced working with a contractor before, so we prayed for God to put the right people in our path, and He answered our prayers tremendously. We were clueless about materials and how much things should cost on average, but Luis guided us step-by-step. He and his crew built a second walk-in closet for our master bedroom. The work looks so professional, it looks as if the closet is a part of the house’s original design, very seamless! Part of our back porch was used for the space, and one of the living room windows had to be removed. We’re still in awe of how it looks like a window was never there! We plan on using BetaPro in the near future, and highly, HIGHLY recommend this business to anyone!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

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.

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 a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.
