"Very prompt, efficient and SUPER tidy! You never knew they had been there each day the person left. There was nothing left lying around from the de-construction, there was no trail leading to where the trash was left until trailer came to pick it up."

"We had to go in a different direction after contacting Brawny Builders, so we were not able to hire them, but they would be my first call any time I had a project. Bronson was very prompt and responsive in answering our queries, got someone out to measure and gave us a very fair quote within a week of my contacting him. He also furnished me with a copy of his insurance without even requesting it - another reassurance that they are true professionals. We had had several disappointing attempts to get quotes from other companies, and this company was head and shoulders above any other."

"Great company to hire. Answered all my questions about what is feasible and pricing. You can negotiate reasonable prices with them. They added an entire new bathroom to my master bedroom, installed ceiling lights and electrical outlets, cleaned AC condenser, created new closets. If they missed something, they will come back to correct it, no extra charge."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

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.
