popping up.
The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit.

"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me.  Overall, they're good designs.  However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning.  I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging.  
Jill was very responsive when I did have a question.  I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done.  If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs.

"I called Mr. Rainwater to inspect our roof after noticing leaking after a recent severe thunderstorm. He was able to meet with me the same day I called. During the consult he inspected the roof and took pictures of all the issues he found. Mr. Rainwater sat down with me to explain the findings and why they needed to be addressed. He was very knowledgeable about the work that needed to be completed. Overall I was very satisfied with the initial consultation. We scheduled him to address the problems with our roof. I am happy with the work Mr. Rainwater completed on our roof and the information on roof maintenance he told me to keep track of. I would highly recommend DeRidder Construction and Handyman Service LLC for any house care, repair and maintenance. Great company!"

"Mr. Cooper was well experienced and very knowledgeable in all facets of home improvement work and technologies. He was responsible, reliable, dependable, honest and punctual. All his work was done in a highly professional manner. I would highly recommend him for any work that one may employ him in doing. His skills and capabilities go far beyond handyman work. It was truly an honor for me to employ him to complete the work as he is a fellow U.S. Army Veteran!! When hiring Mr. Cooper; YOU ARE HIRING THE VERY BEST!!!!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
