"It is tough to find good contractors that will perform quality work, are reliable, don't need constant supervision, and knowledgeable about the different areas of construction. Dan, the owner of Voltaire Engineering, is the rare combination of a good contractor that performs quality work. I have hired Dan to fix multiple rental properties for me with a wide range of things to fix from structural to cosmetic items. Dan has never let me down and his work is impeccable. It is a bonus that he specializes in energy efficiency. I've had several of my properties foamed in the walls, crawlspace, and attic to improve the energy efficiency rating and my tenants cite that one of the reasons they lease my properties long term is due to the lower utility bills. Dan also has an exclusive deal with a window manufacturer in Denver in which he is able to purchase windows at a discount versus through a store. I will be working with Dan in the future as I find more places that need to be fixed!"

"He did an incredible job. His prices were incredibly fare. I was very impressed. He even fixed our trash compactor which I wasn't expecting that day and he also welded a crack in our stove. We saved a ton of money and it's working beautifully.  He only wanted to charge us 75 dollars but we paid him a hundred because we live all up in the mountains and he came like an hour away."

"Of the contractor's we had come out to give us a bid on the painting, I was sure The Paint Doctor would be the highest bid. Surprisingly, not! In fact, the experience from beginning to end was top notch. Joe, the estimator, was very friendly and gave us many choices on the kind of Sherwin Williams paint to choose from. After he inspected the house, he went to his car & put the whole proposal together for us. We were concerned about our metal barrel shingles and being sure the painter would know where to step in order not to dent the shingles. Joe assured us that their painters were familiar with this type of shingle and there would be not problem. Martin did everything from the power washing to causing, painting and staining. He did an excellent job and you could tell he took pride in his work. We are happy to recommend The Paint Doctor to anyone and felt the pricing was excellent."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.
