If youâ re looking for an excellent finishing carpenter, Ryan is your guy. On top of all that, he is polite and personable and ever so pleasant to work with. In addition to all of this, he is impeccably neat in his cleanup at the end of the project."

"David was very honest and hard working. He was a pleasure to work with. My deck looks new and it had rotten wood and carpenter ants damage before David repaired it."

"My husband and I recently hired Preservation Projects to remove an old existing wood privacy fence and replace with a new one. From start to finish they were outstanding. The company is owned and operated by Champion and Aden Hammons and that’s who you will deal with. The communication was timely and Aden was patient in answering all my questions. We received bids from 4 companies and their bid was, by far, the most affordable. They got our job scheduled quickly and gave us a 3 day window of completion, but 90% of the work was completed on the first day. They removed all the debris and now we have an amazing fence! Their professionalism and skill cannot be beat! I HIGHLY recommend Preservation Projects for any work you may need—you will not be disappointed!! They were so meticulous in their work that they even saved a robin’s nest with 4 bright blue eggs! These guys are quite simply the BEST!"

"Alex was extremely professional in building my deck. He was able to come up with creative and effective solutions for the deck that will last for years. When receiving estimates for the deck, I got more than what I paid for as his craftsmanship was excellent."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

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

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.

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.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.
