"Marvon Construction built our garage last fall. We are so happy with it, we had them build a deck for us this summer. Reuben met with us several times for the design and to show us examples and discuss the features of the composite product. He met our requests and offered a few suggestions. Our carpenters were friendly and very conscientious with our property. When we found water damage from the previous deck, they offered a solution and added it to the project. Throughout the project, they offered great communication regarding the status, next steps, coordination with our other contractor, and the estimated completion date. They finished the deck on schedule, and it exceeds our expectations."

"Kodiak provided an estimate that was accurate and fair. They kept me informed as to when the project would be done, arrived on time and finished on schedule. The workers were polite, competent and did the work appropriately. I'd highly recommend this company and I'd use them again for sure. The project required building a stud wall, hanging a pre-hung door and insulating the wall."

"This company provides excellent service, quality work, and professionals who always go the extra mile. Not only have the two experiences Ià ¢à  à  ve had with them resulted in finished work at very reasonable cost, but all individuals are always respectful and polite but perform above and beyond expectations. In particular, for this just-completed project, which involved painting kitchen walls, windows and ceiling and reattaching some fallen aluminum siding pieces, Josh, a renovation specialist as well as a painter, went out of his way to make additional small repairs on his own initiative. His manner and skill set are impressive and restores oneà ¢à  à  s faith that there are among us people who are naturally honest, skillful and helpful. I wouldnà ¢à  à  t hesitate to hire him for further work and am sure his reputation will only grow over time."

"Next Level has completed the screened in porch of my dreams-- reconstructing my former deck for the foundation, building the porch sides to match perfectly the style and color of my house and attending to every detail to make the room comfortable, charming and perfect for spring, summer and fall breezes. The staff were always professional and cordial and the contractor, James, communicated well and often and stayed within the estimate. I couldn't be happier! Highly recommend their work."

"Great communication and quality work and professionalism! I have had several equine fences throughout my life and this fence is by far the best fence (quality, safety, functionality). They showed up on time, fit me into their schedule as my horse was arriving early. They finished early, very accommodating and my fence was above and beyond my expectations.!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.
