First Impressions is a business in the Jackson, MO area that has been in operation since 2007. Hi, I'm Kyle Litchfield, and I am the owner of First Impressions Home Improvement and Painting. I am a lifelong resident of the Cape/ Jackson area and I take great pride in every project I am given the chance to work on. I come from a long construction background and have been in the construction world for most of my life. I am knowledgeable in almost all aspects of construction and in the rare event that I don't have an answer for a customers questions or needs I have a long list of professional connections in the area that I have known for a long time to consult with depending on what the topic area is. I am also a 10 year veteran of the local fire service as a Volunteer Firefighter and EMT. I hold State Level Certifications as an EMT-B as well as Firefighter 1 and 2 levels and Hazardous Materials Certifications. I take great pride in keeping my mess as contained as possible while working on a project and I take the safety of not only myself, but also the customer and their family. I specialize in the small stuff. Unlike other businesses, I am proud to say that I do not have a service call or minimum charge for services. I have done work for folks as simple as just changing a couple of door knobs, or fixing that door that gets hard to open and close every now and again. You don't have to have a major project to need a repairman!! If you think your problem is too small for a repairman to care about, think again. Give me a call!!

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Cedar and cypress are great wood choices for a window planter box because they’re readily available and won’t break the bank. However, there are plenty of wood types appropriate for a window flower box. Try using redwood for its natural resistance to rot, though it is on the expensive side.

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

Buying a pre-made carport is cheaper than building one from scratch. Pre-made carports, especially kits, often include materials and sometimes installation, with prices starting as low as $300 for basic single-vehicle models. Building a custom carport requires purchasing individual materials, ranging from $12 to $40 per square foot, depending on the type, plus labor costs if you hire a pro. Pre-made options are often more cost-effective and hassle-free for most homeowners.

Hiring a woodworker can be expensive, depending on the job, but it’s very often well worth the investment. Woodworkers are able to provide custom pieces of furniture and handmade construction to present a finished product that is exactly to your specifications. If you have a specific vision for a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture or home feature, the cost of hiring a professional woodworker is worthwhile. Plus, you’ll often get a higher quality product than what you could buy in stores for a fraction of the price.
