"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"

"The Under Pressure team were great! I got a very reasonable quote quickly for power washing my wood fence and deck. The job was scheduled promptly. Coby did the work. He was polite, professional and very thorough. The fence and deck look fantastic now. I couldn’t be happier."

"Above and beyond is an understatement. They were very professional and efficient. I literally made my vision come to life in two rooms. The Crown Molding looks exceptional. They showed up every day on time with all the supplies they needed, which was refreshing because most of the time I got stuck paying contractors to go to Lowe’s. Keith, Justin and Austin are amazing and even figured out a way to save me about $300 in supplies and labor. I can’t thank them enough or say enough good things about this company. Will definitely us them again! Will definitely use them again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

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.

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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

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.
