"Barry was recommended by a friend who was very impressed with his work. He responded right away when I called him. He came to the house and went over everything that needed to be done and gave us a quote. He started the work just when I asked, came promptly every day, always cleaned up at the end of the day, and was professional and pleasant to have around.

He told me that he also does dry wall, decks, electrical work, carpentry, and remodeling. I will definately hire him again."

"Ray responded quickly with an estimate that was very reasonable. I have a commercial building that needed two galvanized downspouts replaced. Replacement parts for galvanized gutters is hard to find but Ray went above and beyond to find exactly what I needed. He made several trips to Indpls to find them. We talked about replacing the downspouts with white aluminum but Ray said he wanted to do the job right and get galvanized so they would match. That is a quality that I don't see very often any more. Ray replaced the downspouts within a week. I am very pleased & will call him 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 hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

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.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.
