"Jon Thomas Construction was our contractor of choice for several major remodel projects between 2017 and 2018. We were so impressed by the quality of his work (as well as the professionalism exhibited by his crews) that we decided to contract with him again for conversion of our existing garage into a combination 2-car garage / exercise room. The existing garage had room for 4 cars, but only two of the spaces were being utilized with a single overhead door for two cars. The other half was available to us for storage or other use. The garage was well-insulated, however, still was too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer for comfort. We utilized parts of the existing garage for our workouts, but it was never a proper area for exercise. We are in our late 60s, so we ran the risk of pulling muscles (or worse) without performing stretching techniques and/or warmups. We decided to find a solution that would encourage us to exercise safely at all times of the year. We met with Jon in early January 2025, and he came up with a design to wall-off one half of the garage and insulate the new wall. He also suggested we install a “mini-split” HVAC unit to keep temperature comfortable. Our vision of the new exercise room included the use of acoustic panels, mirrors, and rubber matting on the floor. We also wished to replace an existing door, and, add a second door to isolate the new workout room from the garage. Jon provided his expert opinion on what materials to order and helped us determine the most cost-effective way(s) to proceed. Jon Thomas ensured that our project was completed on-time and at or under budget. We are happy with the finished product and are enjoying working out in our new exercise facility! We will highly recommend Jon Thomas Construction to anyone seeking remodeling contractors."

"Will (Gene) and his crew did a major remodel of our upstairs. They moved two walls, totally made a new bathroom, moved sink, shower and toilet, and replaced tile and flooring. They added larger windows to our bedroom, and replaced part of wood flooring and custom cedar ceiling in bedroom. Absolutely outstanding job. Also, had one small plumbing issue, and we alerted him of it late Friday night, and he was here to correct it Saturday morning . Customer satisfaction is definitely definitely extremely important to them. Will (Gene) and Johnny were great, and Mandy, Isabella and Paul (drywall, paint and cleanup crew) were equally impressive. Thank you to you all."

"Work was done in a professional manner and in a timely way. Care was taken with our new kitchen cabinets as not to damage them. Howie was careful to seam the flooring with the existing flooring in the living room (it was the same as what he was installing) so a transition plate orderd in Hickory that matches our cabinets was easily installed. We got a good price quote for job and are extremely satisfied with both our finished job and Howie. I highly recommend him to anyone and would be willing to speak with anyone that would be interested in hiring him."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

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.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
