"Pat replied promptly, arrived when arranged, and completed the job in good time. He was friendly and worked with me to figure out an unusual carpentry project. He ultimately charged me less than his estimate. His final product was well done; heâ s going to come back and fix another carpentry problem I have. A nice guy to work with."

"The first person came to do this job but left many pieces out of the installation. He did such a poor job of mounting the 55" TV that it began leaning lopsided! Gilbert came to undo all the first person messed up. Gilbert assembled and mounted my 55 inch TV on a large stand that he had to put together again correctly after taking down the awful job done by Diego. Gilbert had no problem with the complex instructions and did a fine job even going out to get screws that had been inserted incorrectly. Gilbert was professional and worked quickly. I would use him again without hesitation."

"Rigo has completed multiple projects in my office, from repairing leaking faucets to electrical panel upgrades. He was recommended to me by a colleague who used him for a major renovation project. Rigo is easy to work with and the results have been excellent. He has also been very accommodating when it comes to working around our office schedule. Highly recommend."

"We hired I Construction to replace 26 year old decks (4). Danny (owner) and his crew did a wonderful job. His crew was on time each day and cleaned up at the end of each day. Danny came to check on the job every day and sometimes more than once. He also "mucked in" when necessary. Definitely an ethical company to work with."

"Ofer recently finished remodeling our house including kitchen, flooring, bathrooms, and garage. Simply put, amazing work from start to finish. He was easy to communicate with and walked us through every part of the project to ensure we fully understood each aspect of the work. The entire team was professional, punctual, and thorough with excellent attention to detail. We had a limited timeline and they made sure the work was completed quickly and as scheduled. Even the neighbors were impressed by their punctuality and discipline! We have a lovely home thanks to Ofer and his team. Thank you for an excellent job!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.
