"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."

"This was the most pleasant experience I’ve ever had. They did custom picture frame moldings on a wall based on my drawings I had sketched on a napkin, and they did both stories of my home with crown molding. They were clean, kind, fair price, honest, and above all the work is flawless. I mean in any room, any floor, any corner I challenge you to find any flaw. Completely seamless. This is the guy for your project, so stop reading and call them!"

"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."

"We hired Gary through Angi initially because Wayfair was not able to provide assembly services for our king bed frame. We got SO lucky. Gary and his brother were absolutely amazing from assembling our bedframe with no parts labeled by Wayfair he somehow managed to eyeball and assemble it perfectly. Gary’s brother assembled our dining table in the meantime . Additionally our movers declined installing our tv and Gary immediately offered to do so at the same job. Reasonably priced, timely and reliable. Gary also fixed a panel in our bathroom which was accidentally drilled into, we’re all human. Gary took ownership and addressed the error and we now love the fixture even more than before. Highly recommend!! We will be using them for all our future homeownership handyman needs!"

Small jobs welcome

"Contractor arrived a little earlier than the agreed time (which was a pleasant surprise). Work was completed quickly and competently. He was hired to install a front door lock, which he did. But additionally, he added a few more screws to the frame of the door to resolve an minor issue with the door sagging in its frame (which was also a pleasant surprise). I am looking forward to working with this company again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.
