"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 was born and raised in lake county, october nineteen sixty four. My father was a contractor in the 60s through 2015. I also had an uncle that was a contractor here in Lake County and an uncle. That is a contractor up in Traverse City. I worked with all of them from the 70s on. Mostly worked for my dad until 1988 when I got my residential builders license. Working here in Lake County, you had to learn to do all of the jobs yourself. You had to learn to do concrete, foundations, lay blocks, framing, build rafters, do roofing shingles or metal roofing. Set windows do siding. Build additions, garages, pole barn, porches, decks, sheds. Do installation, drywall, finished trim.\nFlooring ceramic, tile hardwood floors, laminate flooring. Do trim work ect. I do have subcontractors that I work with. I did the remodel job on the dial a ride building in lake county. I did the Idlewild welcome signs on US 10. I worked with Habitat for Humanity.\nFor the last 8 years. Hopefully hope we can do busi\n\n

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

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.
