"Gaby is excellent. He quoted my job accurately and honestly. He worked quickly and effectively- and was done in the time he had predicted. His work is stellar- we are so happy with our deck. He is also so kind and wonderful to have around. I highly recommend Gaby- I will use him again for all my carpentry needs. He is an excellent carpenter!!"

"In thirty years of home owning and multiple renovations, Lenny Lirette is by far the best contractor I have ever used. He does not cut corners which often comes back to haunt the home owner. In fact he repaired previous contractor disasters for me. He does it right the first time. I love my kitchen its so attractive yet functional. He reconfigured my entire first floor to be customized to my family's needs. A new laundry room and addition. A beautiful porch. New siding. New basement. He has practically done my entire house over. I keep calling him back every time I want to upgrade. He is my go to guy for all things construction and renovation. He is very reliable and a very hard worker with excellent work ethics. I highly recommended him for any and all home renovations."

"I've had an overall excellent experience working with Larry! I hired him to get the framing done for my finished basement, and he has always been quick to respond and did excellent work. He coordinate well to get the materials delivered, and arrived promptly to transport them to the project location. It was always easy to schedule things and get in contact with Larry. I would definitely hire him again!"

"The CP construction crew were very hard working and competent. Clod as the owner is extremely customer service oriented. He communicated with me throughout the permitting process, the build and the inspection process. The new deck and stairs look great and bring compliments from all the neighbors. I will definitely reach out to CP construction in the future."

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.

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.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.
