"The whole process went smoothly. He listens well to the client’s vision and artfully brought to life the look we were going for. He is not only a skilled carpenter but also has an artistic gift in his work. We wanted a custom made, easy to assemble, antiqued wood bed with a medieval flair. He drew up a plan and checked in with us through the whole process, offering his feedback and adjusting changes if needed. We merely had a theme in mind and he designed and built a work of art. The antiqued wood blends well with our other antiques but is far more durable. It’s a perfect blend of beauty and practicality. We highly recommend him for any carpentry project you might have, and we look foward to having him build more here."

"It was perfect! They had to replace butcher block countertops that had been incorrectly installed by another company. They came out and gave an estimate and had samples of wood to choose from and gave options for the installation on the edges, etc. They show up when they are scheduled to for all appointments and they explain what they are going to do and how to care for the counters after installation. Exceptional people to work with!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!"

"I highly recommend Home Genius for a siding project. Everything went really smooth. Any time we had questions they were answered quickly. Our project manager Tony was very knowledgeable and explained everything to us to help us understand how this project would go. I’m so happy with how everything turned."

Customers say: Quick response

"I needed a door built in and framed at the bottom of stairs leading to a separate apartment. After 4 months and multiple contractors committing to, then canceling, or not showing up, I found Joe Maguire. he showed up when he said he would, he was always timely, friendly and professional. And did an outstanding job! The built-in frame and door are seamless and look like they've always been a part of the apartment. His prices are extremely reasonable, and most importantly for me he showed up when he said he would, finish the job in a timely manner, and really did good work! I've already got him lined up for some other jobs as well!"

"You will not find better craftsmen than Magnolia Home solutions. They built a 50 foot long by 8ft deep porch to wrap the front of our home. Ken was a great consultant on the design and materials and was extremely flexible, giving us a variety of options and adjusting with our changing desires - even through the estimate/build process. Their end product was beautiful with extreme protein the quality and details. I highly recommend him. Ben Breazeale Black Mountain, NC"

"Highly recommend. I had several repairs needed around my house. Gault met with me within one day, carefully reviewed all of my items, and provided thoughtful perspectives. I expressed that one repair was particularly urgent and Gault worked with me to have the work performed the very next day. The work was done with very high quality and professionalism. I am very satisfied and look forward to potential future engagements. The urgent work we had done was replacing a load bearing 6x6 leg on my screened-in porch."

"Had two projects through Jobria - porch and large pavilion. Excellent work. Everything was even better than I had anticipated. Josh listened to my vision and asked clarifying questions along the way. Him and his crew were respectful and honestly worked their tails off getting it done right. Highly recommend. The price is fair for the quality of work done. They do not cut corners and will build everything to perfection. Great crew. Amazing foreman. Honest work. Thank you guys!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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.

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.
