Are porch columns load bearing?

• <div><p>Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-do-i-find-out-if-column-between-foyer-dining-room-living-room-decorative-or-load.htm">ways to identify a load-bearing column</a>, 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.</p></div>

What is the average size of an A-frame house?

• <div><p>A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.</p></div>

Should a door frame be nailed or screwed?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/install-interior-door">cost to replace a door frame</a> is about <b>$400</b>, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. </p></div>

It was supposed to have been $2100, but the price kept creeping up. The porch is now sagging, and if I don't get it fixed in next 6 months, it may fall in. In the fascia area he should have used double 2 X 6's, but he used a 2 X 4 and 1 X 6. There are joints in between the posts, and the...

Ask him for a written estimate. He likes it better when people ask him for that. That's just the way he is, to have an understanding of what is to be done. He is both a carpenter and a painter. He is trustworthy and very loyal.

They don’t do insulation but they make anything out of wood like furniture, flooring things like that. They are really nice people. One can go out there and ask for mirror frame and they can do that or make your whole house or what you need in wood.
