"This company was extremely professional and efficient. They were very respectful and cleaned up every day. They treated my property as it was their own. Good to see somebody taking pride in their work. We hired RH & MS, LLC to install a bathroom in the master bedroom. They installed a shower, a tub, toilet, vanity, tiled, painted and build a linen closet, plumbing and such. My wife came in with very high expectations from one of these TV shows and wanted everything look exactly like the TV shows. This company was working with me on my budget and it's appreciated. They did their very best on the small budget I had. I was given estimates as well as a list of tasks completed. Every question I had was professionally answered. They might be a little more expensive than others, but they are fully insured and licensed and have pictures to show past work done, which was very import to my wife. I will recommend them to anybody. Good hard working people. The most dependable contractor I ever worked with. I will have more work done in the future and I sure will hire Mike and his crew again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

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.

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.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

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.
