"I cannot say enough about the performance of this company. Everything we asked of them was completed to perfection! We had major problems with water damage on the roof, and flooring that needed to be leveled. They paid careful attention to my vision of a new gable and completed that beyond my expectations, and now my floor is also nice and level. My kitchen cabinets were painted beautifully. There were so many other repairs they took care of for us and all were performed with expert skill and care. Every quote was reasonably priced so we never felt the need to negotiate a lower quote. They always showed up on time, and put in a full days work everyday. After everything was completed and they had left, we would have never known we had work done. Everything was picked up and clean. They even ran a big magnet over the yard making sure nails and screws were not left behind from the roofing project. These are gentlemen, all four of them. Never heard cussing and there was not inappropriate behavior. They couldn’t tell me enough how much they appreciated our business, imagine that! Asked if I would use them again for work, “big or small”, ABSOLUTELY!! I have already asked them to please schedule a time to build a new dock for our lake and a back porch deck. Thank You, Thank You, Watkins Home Improvement for taking such excellent care of us in this world of cons and fraud."

"No reservations. A number of different jobs done. All were done to the highest standards. The owner always was available for questions. He closely monitored his workers. I had a new roof installed; the best install I have seen. I continue to use KC Construction for several other jobs. He is very honest and cares that his workers do a great job. His company is a gem. I very highly recommend them."

"John did an excellent job on my shower. He didn't boost up the cost nor did he just do what I asked. He explained that what I was asking for wasn't really needed I only need to do etc... that is awesome! most times contractors don't advise customers that just do what you ask. I will definitely use him again!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

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.

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.

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. 

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.
