"Bill came out the same day I called him to see the issues I was having, talk options, and give me a quote. We settled an agreement that day, and he and his crew were able to get started less than a week later. His team was respectful and efficient, and had my old, unsafe deck removed and a new, safe deck installed in just under 3 days. Great experience!"

"I had questions about the contract and never emailed me back or called me back. My question is that it lists something in the contract that costs $350 and there is not much description on what the carpenter will do. It just says I will under direction tell the carpenter what I want done. If I don't ;like what the carpenter intends to do and they don't do $350 of the total job, do I have to pay $350 for work not done because the contract is vague on what the carpenter is to do in a certain area. I never got an answer to this question."

"Personable, professional, timely, project focused. Impressed with company from first on site visit for estimate, quality of materials offered, and fair pricing to completion of build. Workers cleaned up and secured site at completion of each work day. When it was necessary I was brought up to date when plans skewed from original and given options to pursue. I was told when project would start and approximation of completion date. It was one day off due to weather!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

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.

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.
