"Josh is very good to work with and a fine Craftsman. I found him to be professional, courteous, and completed the work in the designated amount of time. I would highly recommend Josh if you want to build a deck and I would use him on future projects."

"Mervin was great to work with. He calls back and shows up on time. They did such a great job on my roof that I hired them to build a deck. I am very happy with both projects. Mervin does things correctly and doesn't take short cuts; I really appreciate that MSW construction is my go to company. I look forward to having Mervin and his crew do more projects at my house in the future. I highly recommend them for yours! Kyah Harward Fort Wayne, IN"

"Aaron and his crew were extremely professional and courteous. He bid the job correctly and even came in under the est when completed. Aaron is extremely knowledgeable and performed the work in a timely and efficient manner. I am a retired contractor too old to perform the work myself and was extremely pleased with Aaron and his crew. Would highly recommend them."

"The customer service is excellent! Tyler contacted me regarding my request on Angi within an hour of filling out my request. He ran by my house, after asking if it was ok to do so, to look at what needed to be done. He had a very professional written estimate to me that same afternoon. He worked with my schedule to get the job done. Koby was out and power washed my house, pergola and Adirondack chairs this morning. He did an excellent job. Everything looks so nice, clean and ready for summer. Very satisfied with my experience with Under Pressure 260 LLC! I would definitely use them again!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.
