"Brian raised our deck and repaired the stairs 2 years ago due to setting issues. The past 2 days he replaced rotted post, repaired railings and rebuilt the landing at the top of the stairs. Very professional and outstanding quality of work. I highly recommend Brian for any repairs"

"The estimate for the cost of the project was accurate. The demolition phase was quick and the clean up was thorough. The project was completed early and the workmanship was excellent. I would definitely use this pro again and can give him my highest recommendation!"

"Amazing work! He was quick to come give an estimate and didn’t make us wait around as other companies did. He gave a reasonable price and with the quality of his work I personally think he could go a bit higher as he works fast and very well. He was respectful of my kids, pets and landscape. He also used real cement for post foundation and not the foam others mentioned in quotes. We will definitely use him when we repair the other side of the fence at our home."

"Mr Rocha is very conscientious about his work and gives good advice about what the job will cost, at the same time helping save money wherever he can. Very personal and easy to work with. I felt his costs for repairing and sealing my deck were very reasonable for what I needed done. I was very satisfied with his work. I would hire again if I need repairs."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
