"After purchasing an Angie's List Deal, I received the measuring kit in the mail promptly. The template and instructions provided to draw my split table top and each of the leaves were easy to use and understand. I mailed the completed materials and received the table pads very quickly. The table splits in the middle to allow insertion of up to 3 additional leaves. The table also has 2 drop leaves. That's 7 pads. All fit perfectly. I have used them on the table for family parties (not every day) and they're durable and built to last. I keep them in the box they arrived in to protect them when not in use. These are a worthwhile investment."

I contracted with Siding Repair Systems (headquartered in OFallon, MO) in June 2015 for the removal and replacement of the siding on my two story house in Golden, Colorado with Certain Teed hardboard siding (8" Hardie Lap Color +).  The estimate was for 2458 square feet of siding, 330 feet of soffit/fascia and 235 feet of 5" gutters and downspouts.  Mr. Cory Feco, principal/owner, met with me to provide contract details and costs in late June 2015 prior to signing the contract.  The installation window specified in the contract was a starting date NLT August 15 and a completion date NLT Sept 21.  The contracted cost of the job was just under $ 26,000 and a $ 1,000 deposit was provided to get the job scheduled.  The contract specified a payment of $ 6,780 (20%) upon material delivery, a payment of $ 7,780 at halfway completion (30%) and the balance upon satisfactory completion of the job. 

Siding Repair Systems called on Friday, August 21 and said that a crew would show up to begin the work on Monday, August 24.  The crew showed up as promised on August 24.  Branch Manager Paul Dickens reviewed the work plan with me that morning.  The siding materials were delivered that afternoon.  The three man crew immediately commenced removal of the old siding.  Project Coordinator Cash Stricker showed up that afternoon to check in and see how the work was proceeding. 

The three man crew was diligent in their work.  They showed up promptly every morning, worked hard and kept the jobsite (my yard) clean and organized.  Likewise for the painting crew (for painting of the fascia) and the gutter crew.  The attention showed by Branch Manager Paul Dickens and Project Coordinator Cash Stricker was timely, appropriate and greatly appreciated. 

I would recommend this company without any hesitation.

"Ben did a great job all around! We had an old deteriorating chain link fence that desperately needed replaced, in a yard that is not easy to work with. Ben was able to work around all of our obstacles with the rolling ground and trees without compromising the integrity of the fence, or the overall aesthetic look of the property."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.
