"If I had one word to describe Elegance Custom Cabinetry it would be "Outstanding". From the beginning, you could tell the passion, Dmitry (the owner) had in custom cabinetry. During the process of designing our new kitchen we went through 3 other cabinet makers and all either seemed to hate what they did or were non-responsive to our questions. Dmitry and his team were professional, friendly, prompt, dedicated, and perfectionists. In any project, you will have issues or unexpected challenges...Elegance ALWAYS had solutions and ALWAYS addressed them promptly. I am confident that without Elegance and Dmitry, our kitchen would have taken twice as long, for twice the cost, and with half of the result. I could not more highly recommend Elegance Cabinetry to anyone."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

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

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.

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
