"Barefoot Painting did a great job with the iron fence at the entrance to our subdivision. They treated it and painted it and it now looks great! Their communication and customer service was also great. It was a pleasure to work with them!!"

"Bert has been wonderful since the start. He answers his phone and texts you back promptly. He shows up when he says he will which is amazing considering how hard it is for a contractor to respond to you or show up when they say they will. He did electrical work for my new pool installation and is going to do a couple other items for me as well since he can do wide variety of work. He also backs his work if you have any issues. Highly recommended! Iâ d give him 10 stars if I could."

"I cannot recommend Rolling Green Fence high enough. I would give them 10 stars if I could!! Absolutely stellar job - even better than I had hoped for. From the outstanding customer service I received when the owner, Buck, answered my first call, to the final cleanup when the job was through, every part of this job was of the highest quality. Not only was Buck incredibly responsive, his team completed my job in record time, with the greatest quality of any workers I have ever hired - bar none. My job was not standard. I needed an 8 foot wooden fence to be installed in a gully on the side of my yard to ensure privacy. Not only does the fence they installed look incredible, the team completely transformed the look of my yard by expertly aligning the adjoining fence - not even part of the original project - to almost completely eliminate the look of a fence moving down a slope. I watched the team - and a fantastic team they were - measure, align, run a level line, adjust, custom cut, and perfect each board in my fence. The supervisor worked mathematic equations on the wood, explaining to the others how he was making his calculations, and perfecting the job for me. I could not be more impressed. There is true pride in workmanship with this company and that is a rare trait to find in a contractor. Buck and his team really brought my vision to life in a big way and I cannot say enough about this amazing company. Well done, one and all!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

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. 

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.
