"Brian installed a portable generator, transfer and outdoor outlet. He was knowledgeable, professional, and reasonably priced. He seemed quite experienced in carpentry and looking forward to hire him again for carpentry projects."

"Kevin was great, he was very responsive on a Saturday and came to hang a new door for me the next day. The installation was more complicated than I originally anticipated. The hinges, deadbolt and door knob did not align with the existing cut outs. Kevin did a great job making the door look like it was pre-hung on the existing frame."

"We needed to replace our old (of 30 years) large deck with a new composite deck. Communication was key throughout the project. Either through text messages or face to face. Thanks for being professional, communicative and easy to work with. The end result, is a great deck!"

"I was very pleased with Gavin’s work, he did a great job! My deck boards were pretty bad and Gavin made sure the underneath was strong before he laid the composite floor. He arrived at my home when he said he would, he was efficient and cordial. He power washed my deck .. railings and all when done. I now have a beautiful strong deck! Thank you Gavin!"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

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

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

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.

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.
