"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!"

"I have been looking for someone to do this job for over a year, and he is the only one who actually showed up and he did a wonderful job! He is very skilled and communicates well. The finished job is lovely. He replaced all the fascia and carpentry work in front of the garage door, as well as all of the trim around it."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.
