"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.

Small jobs welcome

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

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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.
