"I would not hesitate to recommend SES to anyone. When looking for a contractor, responsiveness and quality of work were our first priorities. SES could not have excelled more in either regard. They called everyday to provide an update on the day's work and what to expect the next. Additionally, they made sure to keep the rest of the house clean, without any evidence of their work. Courteous and respectful, will undoubtedly contact for any future needs."

"Samuel is extremely competent, timely, responsive, and transparent. Unfortunately, we had a roof installed a few years ago by a company who cut corners, and STMZ came to repair two separate leaks in the “new” roof. He documented every step of the process with photos, and explained what he was doing. (Most contractors, in my experience, do not take the time to explain the process to you!) I highly recommend his services, and if we ever need to replace the roof, STMZ will be the company we will call."

"I contracted AM Home Improvements to "refresher" my condo, including bathroom, kitchen, flooring and general painting. The experience was great. We were not sure what we wanted. They took the time to walk us through the process and gave us options when needed. They did quality work in very reasonable amount of time. We are very happy with the results."

"The installation went very well, so much so, I hired Malcolm to come back to install shutters. Malcolm is honest and straight up. He works hard. I cannot tell you how many times I have had things done only to have the job done half way, the material substandard, etc. It has been a long time since I have found someone like Malcolm and his crew. I would definitely hire him again. This service was done a little over a year ago. I like to wait to review to make sure of the project. Thank you, Malcolm."

"We used Bob's Painting to paint our kitchen and cabinets (stain to white). Ron and his crew were punctual, professional, fast, thorough, and they never left a mess. Communication was great and I couldn't be happier with the finished product. It seems a lot of companies either don't want to paint cabinets, or they charge an arm and a leg to do it. Ron and his crew did a fantastic job at a fair price. I would highly recommend."

"Thanks to Dennis Ayala and the crew at NOLA Welding works for my beautiful custom-made powder-coated wrought iron fence, gate with arbor, and cedar fence. I am very satisfied with the quality of the work done and that everything was met to my exact specifications. Dennis and his crew were respectful and polite with good communications throughout the process. I highly recommend his company for any wrought iron work or fencing needs."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

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.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

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.
