"Jay built a floating dock/pier for us. The quality of the work done is very good. Jay researched the different companies that have floating docks and gave us a detailed proposal/contract. He uses quality materials and was very precise in constructing the dock/pier. He communicated with us throughout the process. He is a true professional in that he kept to his set work schedule and finished ahead of the projected timeline. We are very pleased with the whole project, enjoyed working with him, and highly recommend Jay."

"First impressions are extremely important to me, if you own a business and want to make it a success first impressions are a must. I called Mr Taylor on a Monday and told him I had a deck that was completely rotten and I was in desperate need of replacement. He asked if he could come tomorrow???? What? Out of the 5 other contractors I called Mr Taylor was the only person who came within 24 hours and kept his word. I knew he was a hour away but I was thankful my issue (hopefully) would soon be resolved. Mr Taylor drove up in a spotlessly clean truck, dressed professionally and shook my hand. I showed him the rotten deck he gave me a quote (which was $4000 LESS than one other contractor) and said he would send his two guys tomorrow (which by the way was a Saturday) . My face kind of dropped and said "great" I'll be waiting for you. So Saturday morning comes both gentleman show up right on time knock the job out in one day and it was PERFECT! I would use Mr Taylor and his crew for any carpentry job I needed. Thank you again Mr Taylor it was a joy meeting you and I very much appreciate the impeccable work."

"The price was fair. They worked all day for seven days many in high heat. They were polite and always helpful. They painted and stained 4 long porchs and replaced the lattice work around the base as well as paint the foundation. The house looks GREAT. Have more projects for after the holidays and will wait to hire them before another company."

"They did a great job! My house looks better than I dreamed it could have. They finished it quicker than expected, never went above the agreed price (which was the best price out of 9 different quotes), and went out of their way to work with our crazy schedules. I will definitely be hiring them again for more projects around the house!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

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.
