RC&G is an acronym - it stands for "Richard, Charlene, and the Girls", because it's a great reminder of what I'm working for. I'm Richard and my wife and daughters are the most important thing in the world to me. Also hugely important to me is doing great work in my business as a handyman. I've always been mechanically inclined and good at fixing whatever's broken. With decades of experience, now I'm truly a master handyman. Whatever you need, I'm here to get it done. I respond quickly to contacts and give an accurate estimate. Then I arrive as scheduled, do the job right, and leave your house as clean as I found it. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

"Project went fine. Richard was very professional and accommodating!"

"Couldn't be more pleased. Enrique responded to my initial inquiry the day I sent it to Angi. He was at my home the next day to preview the work I needed, submitted his proposal within a few hours, and completed the work within a week. The stair railing is exactly how he described it to me and I am completely satisfied with the workmanship. I would definitely recommend Live Oak General Builder, Inc."

"We had the best experience with this contractor for major exterior work on our home. The owner Sobi first came out to look over the multi faceted project. Our home is 50+ years old and a unique custom build. Many years of deferred maintenance led to extensive dry rot and a need to waterproof a very large roof deck. No contractor really wants to do this kind of work but not Sobi. He assured us that he has seen far worse and has solutions and ideas for our specific issues. This involved more of an investigative approach as he dove into a complicated drain pipe system that was built inside the walls. He found the issue and went to work replacing interior drain pipe connections, etc. He then addressed the extensive exterior dry rot. Some beams needed to be replaced, others could be salvaged. The other big issue, a huge roof deck that was leaking, Sobi had a solution that worked great for us, saving us money. He is very personable, professional, problem solver, just the best! "

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Buying a pre-made carport is cheaper than building one from scratch. Pre-made carports, especially kits, often include materials and sometimes installation, with prices starting as low as $300 for basic single-vehicle models. Building a custom carport requires purchasing individual materials, ranging from $12 to $40 per square foot, depending on the type, plus labor costs if you hire a pro. Pre-made options are often more cost-effective and hassle-free for most homeowners.

It’s much less expensive to build a house with wood. This is because wood is relatively inexpensive, strong enough to endure decades or even centuries of weathering and pressure, and is easier to replace if there are issues. The cost of stone houses are incredibly expensive, heavy, time-consuming to build, and difficult to repair. 

Yes, in all cases, it should be more affordable to build your own carport than it would be to hire a professional to do the work. The material costs can sometimes cost a little more through a professional because they can mark it up for delivery and procurement costs. You’ll also save hundreds or thousands on labor fees if you install your carport yourself.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Pole barns and carports are similar in that they rely on posts for support and are often not connected to a primary structure. The main difference between the two is that pole barns usually include walls that surround the entire perimeter of the structure, while carports generally remain open on three or four sides. It’s possible to insulate garage doors and even exterior walls on pole barns to create a comfortable workspace, and it’s a bit more secure for storage purposes. However, carports are more affordable.
