"Corey did a very good job with our kitchen repair. Our general contractor hired him, and he's very conscientious about his work / craft. He uses a wet seam installation for the drywall, sort of like doing plaster, and that keeps him from sanding everything and really messing up the house. His painting was very high quality too. He takes his time, is meticulous, and you'll be happy with the finished product. We are."

"Zach has done a number of handyman projects around my house for me. Most recently, he fixed a bunch of misaligned cabinet doors, a wobbly ceiling fan, and completed a large ceiling drywall repair after a tub leaked above it on the upstairs floor. He is always punctual, professional, and does excellent work. Highly recommend for any of your project needs!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

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.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

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.
