"

Company was right on time; showed up with 2 workmen. They worked really fast, splitting up the jobs. Originally I only was going to have 3 jobs completed, but they finished those so quickly I added a fourth (I was lucky and glad I had an extra job ready; it was one I was going to do myself). Even with that, the workers were finished within about 45 minutes.

All the jobs were completed perfectly, with the exception of one. I had told the worker that I wanted the new shower head installed because the old one was leaking. When he installed the new one, it still leaked. So, I had to hire another contractor to fix that. Technically, he did exactly what I asked, but I did mark down one grade on quality because it didn't fix the problem, which I had told him about.

The workers cleaned up everything pretty well.

If you use the company, make sure you have every part, even the smallest washers, nuts, and bolts, for the job before the workers start. As far as I know they carry no parts at all, only tools.

"I am extremely pleased with the quality of work, professionalism and follow-up demonstrated by the owner (Charles Green) and his team. We have used G&G several times over the years, although this was the first really big job we had. Mr. Green helped with difficult questions and issues I had initially getting the fair market value from my insurance company. Also G&G recommended sub-contractors to do our tile and plumbing work which did a great job as well. I will definitely use G&G again and would highly recommend this company."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

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.
