"John came out to install a single window. Other contractors through home advisor came out and wouldn't follow up because the job was too small. John came out, it was easy to set an appointment with him. He arrived on time and ended up giving me a timely quote and honest timeline on when the work could be done since I had a special order window. Once the window arrived he put it in the following day. Great communication. Will recommended!"

"From the moment we first called Homeland we knew we had made the right choice for our sunroom. We cannot say enough good things about this company. They are finishing up our sunroom as we speak and they have done an amazing job for us. Communication was excellent, and every person who has come to work at our home has been kind, has listened and taken care of everything we neededâ ¦even with our continuous changes and additions to the project. I am so thankful that we found them. We have had a lot of work done to our home over the years, but Homeland will be who we call for anything we need in the future. Thank you so much."

Midwest Mechanical offers expert installation and service on all air conditioning and heating equipment. More families and businesses trust their team of factory trained, veteran HVAC professionals than any Trane® authorized contractor in the Greater Wichita Kansas area. “Our mission at Midwest Mechanical is to establish and maintain a mutually beneficial relationship with each client we serve, and each system we service to provide maximum long term performance, and reliability to the owner and to conduct business with integrity as individuals and as a company that commands trust and respect of our clients and peers.” At Midwest Mechanical we charge by the job not by the hour. We have a diagnostic charge to travel to your home or business and diagnose the problem. At that point we will tell you exactly how much the repair is going to cost, if the repair is authorized we will waive the diagnostic fee. We offer FREE 2nd opinions on cracked Heat Exchangers, or bad Air Conditioning Compressors. We will come out at NO CHARGE to double check what you have been told. In addition, we are so confident in our technicians' competence that if we condemn your heat exchanger and can not show you the crack once the old furnace has been removed, we will install the new furnace for FREE! We offer FREE estimates on replacement systems. Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed and we will put it in writing. You do not have to pay a penny until you believe we have lived up to our end of the contract. The price we quote will be the price you pay. If we encounter additional or unforeseen problems you will incur no additional charges. 100% financing is available (WAC). We also offer Senior, Military, Fire, & Law Enforcement Discounts.

"Been with this company for almost 8-10 years. They have always done exceptional work with our Trane System. We had people tell us several times we needed a new unit but we're trying to rip us off. Midwest Mechanical fixed a burnt wire, cleaned the unit and checked heating and air and this baby has been running ever since. They are the best seasoned workers we know and reasonable. Thank you Midwest Mechanical"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Depending on your carport's configuration, foundation or slab condition, and location in relation to the house, turning a carport into a garage has a lot in common with adding an addition to your home. However, you can skip some of the necessities of adding living space to your home, such as fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall or HVAC. It might be possible to DIY the conversion, but it’s complicated and potentially dangerous work, so it’s best left to the professionals.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

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. 

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.
