"The upgrade to my utility room was the removal of damaged drywall and insulation and the installation of additional insulation and new drywall on both the ceiling and walls. The work was completed in the timeframe promised. My appliances were reinstalled and everything was cleaned up and pit back as it was. I am very satisfied with the room and the work. I will use Monterrozas the next time I need work done in my home. Thank you, Tony."

We're dedicated to providing our clients with the very best in service, installation, and repairs. With years of industry experience, we take an enormous amount of pride in the attention to detail put into each of the projects we're involved with. We're known for our quality work and the integrity of our business.

"OK here goes. The gentleman was very polite. I showed him what I needed done and went back into the house to get the money we discussed I pay. He came to the door said he was done---I paid him, cause the back of the house gutters looked ok. When my son came up, he said the front gutters were NOT cleaned. I feel that I got RIPPED OFF, cause I paid for front and back to be cleaned. Because he was so nice, I figured I would not have to recheck his work, however, I would not hire him again, or recommend him to anyone. He is NOT a good representative for your company."

Greetings! My name is James Southerland. I am a pastor and a carpenter. I have worked in the construction industry for over 25 years, and specialize in bathroom and kitchen remodels. Across the years I have built and finished custom cabinets, installed new and additional electric lines (residential), layed flooring of almost every type, and most recently, become a certified fabricator of Wilsonart solid surface for both countertops and shower surrounds. I look forward to serving you. I have many repeat customers, and a high satisfaction record. Thank you for your consideration.

"We could not recommend James and Precision Carpentry strongly enough. He asked all the right questions and truly listened to our answers. His bid was more than fair and he quickly adapted as we kept changing our mind about finishes, added requests and final details. He did great at communicating via both phone and text messaging and was always available to answer questions and concerns. His final pricing came perfectly in line with the bid. Long story short - I have recommended him to others looking for a remodeler and fully expect to use him again on future work in our home, 5 stars."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

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

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.
