"David and crew were fantastic! They were very thorough, organized, reliable and professional. What we appreciated most was that David was a perfectionist, thought of everything and took care of little details that we didn’t even ask about. David, you are truly a joy to work with and an exceptionally skilled carpenter. We will use you for all of our future home renovations! Allison"

"Sal and his assistant did an awesome job! I was impressed that Sal arrived 20 minutes early, moved the assembled furniture to where I wanted them, and left my home office immaculate. Both men were professional, pleasant, and efficient. I would definitely hire him again and recommend Sal's Contracting to anyone needing furniture assembled."

"JP Signature Carpentry repaired a substantial problem that involved missing roof shingles and roof gaps that caused rotten below-carpet floor boards. They came on the day they promised and completed the big job on that day. They also tightened up our staircase railings nicely. We'll hire them again whenever we need help!"

"As a structural engineer, I get the opportunity to work with a lot of different contractors. Some good, some bad and some extraordinary at building new homes or additions. Art Bell is one of the extraordinary ones! His attention to detail and final product have always impressed me on each and every project that we have worked on together. I always rest well when I know Art is working on a project that I did the engineering on. He doesn’t cut corners anywhere during his builds and if he has a question, he reaches out to me for clarification instead of just guessing. Art is a Solid home builder, I can’t recommend him enough."

"Vince and the busy bee handyman team did a great job for us. Our handyman was a skilled carpenter and did a perfect job. The dog door we purchased wasn’t 100% airtight so Vinny the owner came at no cost and did a work around to help seal the place air came through the flap. Even though it was the door manufacturer issue Busy bee wanted us to be happy and also build a rain resistant cover at no additional cost. I’m so thankful that i found Vinny bc he will not stop until you are 100% happy with the project. 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

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

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.
