"We want to start by saying that Travis did a good job completing the project, and we are happy with the finished product. He even lowered the price when he realized the workload was smaller than originally expected, which we appreciated. Our biggest concern was communication. We were almost always the ones reaching out for updates and to find out when they would be coming. At times, it felt like our project was not a priority. The timeline was also an issue. The project ultimately took about two weeks, whereas we were originally told it would take approximately three days total. Additionally, part of the project involved painting the mantle. When it was first completed, the workmanship was very poor. We contacted Travis, and to his credit, he did make it right by purchasing and painting a new mantle. However, this did add additional time to the project. Lastly, while Travis appears to do good work, we did not see him on-site very often. The two workers he had did not seem experienced"

"Josh is extremely knowledgeable and very well versed in all areas. He was very fair with his pricing, handed all transactions and any issues with professionalism. Not your stereotypical contractor, Josh is a family man that was respectful. The project took a little longer than anticipated, but in the end had the level of quality and skill we had expected!"

"The crew arrived earlier that agreed and set to work quickly. The crew were friendly, knowledgeable, respectful and efficient. They worked very hard and were very respectful of our home. The job required they work at our house over multiple days and each day the guys cleaned up the work area very thoroughly. I really appreciated that the guys did not rush any aspect of their job but really focused on the quality of their workmanship. All phone contact with the management of Cooper's Construction was answered very quickly and they were very responsive to our needs. I absolutely will use this company again and I will recommend them to everyone I know.

"Very well. Jeremy had been recommended to me by several friends. I called him and he and another gentleman came out the very next weekend and repaired the issue including all the additional problems cause by the moving wall. They did a great job in securing the wall and fixing all the related issues.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.
