"Stop perusing contractors and just contact Adam immediately – he’s the one you want to build your fence or deck. We hired Adam to construct a privacy fence, and we’re absolutely thrilled with the final result. Adam was personable and easy going yet professional, and his crew was friendly and polite. He produced top-notch work, and he did so for the price he’d originally quoted -- there were no “gotcha” price increases that are unfortunately common among contractors. Most impressively, Adam and his crew finished the work on time, despite poor weather and issues with a supplier. He also took the challenges our slightly strange property presented in stride. We cannot recommend Adam Free Multi-Services enough, and we’ve already had initial discussions with him about other projects."

"I just moved a week ago and the movers I hired damaged my bed frame significantly. I found Tony through Angi. He showed up on time and fixed my bed frame in under an hour. Exceptional work....very professional and friendly. I would definitely use his services again and would recommend him to friends or strangers."

"My husband and I wanted to do some much needed home improvements. I visited Angi.com and typed in my construction needs: we wanted to replace our rotting upper deck. I interviewed 3 different companies and selected on A.D.A. Construction and Erin Lopez for my team. From the moment the project started, his construction crew never stopped moving. Erin really listened to what I needed to have done. He was professional and courteous. They showed up on time and worked hard in this Georgia heat. While they were here, I asked for a quote on a second project. He gave me a quote on the spot, which was in my budget. Erin was able to work both projects simultaneously. I now have a beautiful front porch and a beautiful upper deck all thanks to A.D.A Construction, Erin Lopez and Samuel. I would give them a 10 if that were an option. I will definitely call on Erin for any future projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

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

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.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.
