"My experience with New Vision Construction was awesome!! This company was the only company, from Angi, who really showed interested in helping me (us) meet our needs. I sent photos of what I needed done to several drywall contractors on Angi. The most I got from them all, except New Vision Contractors, was an amount with no explanations or communication. New Vision renewed my belief in a professional business that was really interested in my project! They have helped me (us) from start to finish with some add ons to the project without hesitation!! This company is honest and upfront with expenses….they truly haves restored my faith in construction humanity and down right honesty! I would highly recommend this company for remodeling, new construction or any home improvements required! Thank you New Vision Construction!!!"

"The crew from Maximus painted the three interior levels of our home and the exterior siding and trim.  I liked that there was a large crew so the work went quickly, they were done within a week.  The house was vacant so it made it a bit easier for them but to do a great job in a 4,000 s.f. house in the timeframe they took was amazing.  We discussed at the beginning that the flooring contractor would be coming in after they were finished and that there would be touch up required.  They came back and fixed all the items I had on my list and they made it clear their intent was for me to be satisfied.  I have worked with a number of painters over the years and they gave me an excellent price.  I highly recommend them."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

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.
