"Mitch and Spencer handled my tuck pointing job, which started out small but turned out to be large, professionally. They knew what the problem was with water infiltration and how to treat it. Their tuck-pointer did really great work on the stone and brick and rebuilding my rear stairs and he left the place spotless. I will definitely re-hire them for projects I have coming up."

"Bk carpenters are the type of craftsmen other contractors should strive to be. Made me think about how my grandfather would say things once were. A man who gives you his word and sticks to it. Brian said he would be here at 8am and he was there at 7:45. No corners cut and the attention to detail blew me away. I couldnâ t be happier. Iâ ll definitely be using bk for future projects."

"Mario responded quickly to my request. He provided a quote that met my budget. I made a deposit and he came out in two days to complete my job. I had a back porch support post that was rotting away, putting my porch at risk of collapse. The repair involved replacing the rotten post and modifying a custom decorative lattice on one side. This was a relatively small job and I was unsure that I could get an experienced contractor to take it on. They did the work quickly, efficiently and it all looks good. They arrived on time; cleaned up the job site; demonstrated a professional demeanor; and completed everything to my satisfaction. I will call Vax Construction when I'm ready to do a bigger improvement project."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

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.

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.
