"I am so glad I went with B. Broussard Construction. I had previously tried to hire another contractor but he never showed up. After a few weeks of that contractor not showing up, I decided to go else where. That is when I found B.Broussard Construction. They got right to it so quick and it didnâ t take them but a few days. I did not get a chance to meet Brad in person but my mother did. I was informed he was very kind and all around good man. I was very impressed with their work, the timely manner it took them to complete it, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to renovate their home. I would definitely use them again in the future for other projects! God Bless :)"

"First of all he's honest because everyone else wanted to charge me $800-$1200 dollars to relevel my trailer home. Eric came out and seen it was a simple fix and did it for $250 I was so impressed I decided to give him more work to clean my yard from storm damage and he and his helpers did a wonderful job they were fast efficient and respectful.And for the first time hiring handymen I didn't have to repeat myself to him Eric did exactly what I asked him to do Very Very impressed"

"Danny with Lifetime Roofing & Construction has a very professional crew. They were in and out in one day so we didn't have to deal with many disruptions or any loud noises. They did great. I'd recommend them for any roofing, remodeling, or construction job you have."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.
