"bathroom walk-in shower remodel???- I would highly recommend American Handy Hands to anyone. They did a walk-in shower for me for my disabled husband and then actually ended up doing more updating while they already here working. Dustin Collins was great at coming by and getting me a quote on my job and within a few days of the quote they were ready to start the job. The guys (Mike, Robbie and Jay) and Daniel (ceiling repair), I could not have not asked for any greater guys to have done the job. Everyone was a true blessing to me and my husband. I have already talked to Dustin about more jobs I am looking forward to him doing for me in the very near future. If you are needing anything done, please do not hesitate to give American Handy Hands a call. I don?t think you will be disappointed."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.
