"We hired Fresh Coat to repair moisture damage to my mother's dining room ceiling. Terry Williams came out and gave my 86-year-old mother a very reasonable quote to repair the damage in the dining room and to primer coat and paint the ceilings in the kitchen, dining room and living room. After talking to my mother, she decided that she wanted the walls and woodwork trim in all three areas painted as well. Mr. Williams came back out to provide an updated quote. The quote was very reasonable. We decided to accept their quote and due to a cancelation is his schedule the job was able to start the very next day. We had Donna and CW as the painters and my mother loved them from the very beginning. Each day they showed up on time with Mr. Williams. They went far and above what was expected. Each day when they finished, they cleaned up their work. Throughout the process Mr. Williams would be there each morning to check on the progress. Mr. Williams never asked for any money until the job was finished. The final bill was exactly the same as the original quote even though they did more work than was in the original quote due to my mother's age. We could not be happier with the final results and would defiantly hire them again. I can't say enough good things about them!"

"Jaren has been the absolute BEST! We had a real mess of a yard. Overgrown invasive honey suckle, uneven slope, fence falling down. Day one, they had all of the overgrown parts cleared and they kept natives that I asked for. Jaren spent several days designing and redesigning our fence to not only make sure it was what we wanted, but also that it was within our budget and up to all of the standards for the city. When work started on the fence it was completed in about 3 days. The result is absolutely more than I could have hoped for. The opening in the fence for my trees, and my gorgeous gates, are my favorite parts. Thank you to this awesome team, I love my back yard now!"

"We hired them to refurbish our old deck. They replaced five of the rotting joists and all of the decking, steps, and top rail with treated wood. Fast, reliable, quality craftsmanship, and good value. Can’t recommend them enough. Thanks Bernardo and your team for the expert service."

"Great experience! Showed up on time, worked hard, well organized, friendly, accommodating, and no surprises on the fee. The emptied out my entire garage(complete mess without any available space), built three heavy duty racks, and then returned everything in an organized fashion. It's like a whole new garage. It sounds like a simple job but it definitely was not."

"I would definitely recommend Mr. Handyman for any job. You had around the house that you could not handle the 2 technicians who came out and worked on the project that I had were very professional of. J.R. was especially attentive to my needs. He explained what he was doing why he was doing it and whether or not I wanted it done. And I really appreciated the fact that he took the time to explain what he was doing to me and. Why it was in his main opinion, the best course to take. I am going to use them again for another project and I am very, very satisfied."

Carpentry FAQs, 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. 

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
