"Josef does excellent work - I would hire him again. He replaced a 15 foot railing in front of my home. He took extra care to match the color of the stain (including sending me pics from the hardware store to confirm). Scheduling took a more back and forth than expected but it was worth the wait."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

There's no simple answer to which is less costly: wood or metal-framed homes. In most cases, metal building components cost more than wooden ones, while entire metal buildings cost less than wooden versions. However, regardless of the exterior framing or structure, each must meet similar building codes. This means that the costs are about the same, even considering that wood will require more maintenance than metal over time.

Building a wooden carport costs between $3,000 and $12,000, depending on size, materials, and custom features.

Poured concrete is one of the best bases for a carport. You'll get one of the biggest bangs for your buck with concrete, thanks to its durability. At the same time, if concrete isn't in your budget, it might not be the best base for your installation. Dirt foundations, gravel foundations, and permeable pavers work in a crunch and can be long-lasting without the higher price tag of poured concrete.

While fabric and temporary carports last for just a few years, depending on the weather they must endure, well-maintained metal and wood carports can last between 10 and 30 years. In some cases, well-cared-for carports made of high-quality materials can last a lifetime. How long your carport will last depends mostly on its construction, materials, and maintenance.

Yes, many kinds of building permits exist for various projects in and outside your home. Each city sets the permit categories, but they typically cover new construction, alterations, and demolition. For example, you will need a different permit to finish a basement than you would tear down the patio.
