We have lived here for 27 years, in one community and one school district. This means I value steady, honest relationships . . . . especially my wife of 40 years! Thus, this honesty and integrity extends to our work with others, starting with treating you & your home with respect. As a contractor, we offer a variety of general home improvement services, recognizing your individual project is unique to you. We specialize in additions and bathroom remodels, exterior decks and garden structures. But also offer a wide range of expertise for a variety of other projects. We have even integrated passive and active solar into past projects. So what makes us different? Ask for our introduction letter! We believe there are many qualified craftsmen. Working together requires honesty, trust and being problem solvers. We live these principles as we work. We look forward to earning your trust and creating a project for you!

"Our experience with Terrehaven Solutions will sound like a broken record compared to everything else I have read about them. John and his two associates were the utmost professional, timely, and respectful of our home, property, and our goal of getting the deck built before the winter hit. They came exactly when they said they would, and they FINISHED exactly when they said they would. Today, one week before Christmas our grille and patio furniture sit in beautifully in the snow, waiting to grill some steaks on Christmas Eve. Thanks John, Trevor, and John Mark. I would highly recommend this company to anyone in the Elburn and surrounding areas."

We accept all major credit cards and we are Better Business Bureau accredited.

"Working with Chicagoland Home Products for my closets has been an excellent experience. We initially did four shelving projects with them a few years ago. They did such an excellent job and the closets and pantry have held up beautifully, so it was a no-brainer to have them complete my primary bedroom walk-in closet this month. Tammy is a pro and probably the nicest person you’ll ever meet! She remembered exactly who I was, even after a few years, and pulled up the previous design for my primary closet. We tweaked a few things to ensure I was happy and booked the install. The installers showed up on time, wore shoe covers without me asking, were very friendly, and completed my closet perfectly. I love it! I plan on working with Chicagoland Home Products in the future and recommend them to everyone."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

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

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.

Depending on your carport's configuration, foundation or slab condition, and location in relation to the house, turning a carport into a garage has a lot in common with adding an addition to your home. However, you can skip some of the necessities of adding living space to your home, such as fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall or HVAC. It might be possible to DIY the conversion, but it’s complicated and potentially dangerous work, so it’s best left to the professionals.
