"I'm happy to share my thoughts on John Munn and his company, Coastal Built Construction. I recently had the pleasure of working with John and his team on a deck rebuild project at my house, and I have to say that I'm absolutely thrilled with the results. From the very beginning of the project, John was incredibly professional and attentive to detail. He took the time to listen to my ideas and concerns, and he was always available to answer any questions I had along the way. His team was efficient and kept the job site clean and spotless. He turned a tired old deck into a brand new impressive, modern structure with a set of infinity steps across the entire thing. The end result of the project was amazing. John and his team took great care to ensure that the deck was not only aesthetically pleasing but also structurally sound and safe for my family to use. Throughout the entire process, John was an absolute pleasure to work with. His professionalism and expertise were evident in every aspect of the project, and his dedication to his craft was truly impressive. I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to work with John and his team, and I would not hesitate to recommend Coastal Built Construction to anyone looking for high-quality construction work. From deck building to full renovations and construction, if you're looking for a true professional that delivers exceptional results, look no further than Coastal Built Construction and John Munn!"

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I highly recommend Presley Contracting! They did an excellent job building the roof over my deck, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. The entire crew was professional, hardworking, and respectful from start to finish. They paid close attention to detail, kept everything clean, and made sure the job was done right. The quality of their workmanship really shows, and the finished deck roof looks great. I appreciate all the hard work the crew put in and would definitely recommend Presley Contracting to anyone looking for quality work and a dependable crew!"

"Nick competed with the various shower remodelers in the area. He installed a tile shower, tile floor and painted two rooms for less that the cost the others quoted for the shower only, and the others did not use tile but the panels. The tile work was beautiful and we were very pleased with the work. I wanted some special plumbing, so I purchased several items and Nick and I settled the final cost very equitably and Nick was very generous in the allowances for the materials I provided. The final check and clean up was done well and we were very pleased with the job and finances. i would recommend Creative Concepts highly"

"I needed stair tread repairs to our deck. During a severe hurricane several years ago a large tree limb fell on the steps, and eventually the treads started rotting. While he was here, I also decided to add some simple shelving to the inside of our shed. He responded to my posting on Angi by calling me very quickly, just a few minutes actually. He came to my house within a day, looked everything over and gave me an estimated cost. He gave me an approximate start date and he finished all the work in one day, and did a very good cleanup before he asked me to review his work. I will definitely recommend him to my neighbors, and I will call him first if I have other carpentry work needed on my home."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

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.
