"You mean to tell me awesome and excellent are not options? Because that s what I experienced. I called them last minute to have two doors replaced including a door frame. Rene was as patient as a saint! She was so kind and always there to answer any and EVERY question I had. They were able to fit me in their schedule so quickly. Robert is a hard-working man! He does his job and he does it WELL! I think he is darned near a perfectionist because if it isn't t right, he will make it right!!! He s so knowledgeably in what he does. This company does not price gouge. They are very reasonable and professional! I will DEFINITELY be contacting RnR again for future home projects. They met and exceeded all of my expectations."

"Matthew and his painting assistant did a phenomenal job painting my bedroom and bathroom. They were very thorough and meticulous, with great attention to detail. They were able to finish a day earlier than originally estimated, and the complete job was very reasonably priced. I thank them for being willing to take on a job that, I'm sure, was not an easy task. I highly recommend Matthew and his company."

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.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

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 both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.
