"Just had a job done by JP carpentry. My experience was wonderful. The owner is friendly, punctual, knowledgeable, and I was very satisfied with the entire job. I will be definitely hiring him for other projects in the future. I highly recommend this company to anybody who has projects that need to be done. Thanks."
"Great work. Needed to have this work done months ago. This very nice young man showed up when he said he would and fixed my kitchen cabinets in a day’s work. Will highly recommend him to anyone."
"Perfect. They did excellent work. Very professional and very clean as well. I don't think another carpenter could have done what needed to be done as well as Carlos did. I am extremely pleased."
"Ebenezer and his team are professional, courteous and experienced. it is refreshing to see when a company truly cares about their workmanship and total client satisfaction. He is a Master of his Craft and it shows. Throughout the process he made sure I was completely informed and ensured my high standards were met. I was very vocal about what I wanted and expected. They painted my entire home, Ceiling, Crown Moldings, Walls and Baseboards. All this work was done without a drop of paint on my brand-new floors or driveway. I mention this because the last So Called Painter I hired on my own, painted my walls and everything else he was not supposed to! Hire a Real Professional on Home Advisor. I highly recommend Ebenezer Faife Painting Services on HomeAdvisor!"
"I’m very pleased with my upholstery job completed. Adolfo was right on task, very accommodating and showed expertise in the this field. The job was completed in very reasonable time frame."
"I live out of state and had an investment property that i needed to sell. Originally I called a couple of my contractor friends to quote/perform the jobs and they left me stranded. I turned to Angie's list I found Sead here on Angie's list because of his #1 ranking and called him for a quote. He responded immediately, arranged to quote the job the next day, visited the job site and gave me a fair quote and time frame to complete the job. Once i was ready to commence, I called him during the Christmas Holidays and he managed to start work within a day or two of my call. Upon inspection by the city, it was determined i needed additional work to get the home compliant to sell, I called Sead again and he was able to quote and commence the job immediately thereafter. Thanks to his professionalism, and quality of his work, the house passed certification and i was able to get it sold. Sead solved the problems i've been dreading for the last 10yrs. Thank you for your professionalism and craftsmanship. "
"Jesus did a fantastic job! He replaced damaged wood framing for me around a basement window, reinstalled the window and did a beautiful job of trimming the window with PVC. Will definitely use his services again!"
"Its hard to find a good carpenter in Miami if you don't know anyone but Robert is great to work with. Honest, capable and approachable for "odd" projects."
You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.
Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.
Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.
The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.
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.
