"All work was completed on time, quotes were honored, and the quality, especially of the challenging backsplash tile work, was outstanding. We've found our "handyman" service and will be using JY Home Repair again in the near future for sure!"

"It went great Hector was very knowledgeable you could tell that he had done this before several times. Totally reframed my front door and added a security screen which involved cutting away stucco adding frame and trim and lock sets. Also repaired taped and mudded sheetrock in my kitchen ceiling hallway & bathroom. The work was professional. He matched all the existing texture for the interior sheetrock work and the stucco work outside. Reasonable price for a professional job. Would hire and recommend again."

"Alex the owner is wonderful to deal with. He communicates daily on the status of the job. He was not the cheapest, but his experience sold me . He knows what he is doing and only wants the job to be done perfectly. He just installed a 20 X 22â patio cover on our backyard and we couldnâ t be happier. He had it permitted and approved by the city of Chandler. It matches the stucco of our home perfectly. Alex knows what he is doing and I highly recommend him. In fact I already have!"

"Fantastic! Michael and his Dad Scott are the best. I had an old wheelchair ramp and no fence at my new home. They tore down the ramp and put in wood stairs and a small wood picket fence. Michael designed a plan that maximized every inch of space. I have a beautiful porch, stairs and fence. My little dog loves her new yard! When it was finished I even had a small patio space! They showed up on time, kept me informed every step of the way and cleaned up. Honest work at an honest price! I'm glad to have met and hired them!"

"Excellent company and excellent service. Everyone that came to work was always pleasant, knew what they were doing and did not cut corners. Always easy to get a hold of and would listen to my thoughts on the project. Together we would make decisions and they always were positive and very knowledgeable. Usually having construction in your home can be stressful, not with Cook Remodeling. I so appreciate their amazing job well done."

"We had Floyd and his crew build a guest house/casita on our property. Floyd handled all the work, from the design/architecture (done by his wife Sue), getting all the concrete work done, all the carpentry, electrical, plumbing, finish work, etc. In the end we have a beautiful 1 bed room, great room and kitchenette Casita with a rooftop deck! All the work was professionally done, very clean, high quality construction. Floyd knows his stuff, or he learns it - the roof top deck was a new experience for Floyd, but he worked closely with the materials supplier to do an excellent job and get certified for future roof deck projects! All in all, we are very well please with the results! Looking for more projects to bring Floyd in on. I would highly recommend Floyd for any remodel or new construction project!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

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
