"Mr. Arzeyuth and his crew restored my haggard garage to better than new condition. They patched all nails that were popping out. They methodically repaired the seam tape which was falling in places and really looked bad. The painting made everything look new. The job was professionally done in a timely fashion. It is beautiful!"

"We were extremely happy having Wilber's Painting to do the work. The staffs are courteous, the carpenters and painters are very professional and take the time to make sure everything is done correctly and to the highest level. For the paint job it is just superb. They finished it much faster than I expected but still looks fantastic, and definitely way much better than I do it myself. Also I am glad they used primers and paints that don't have a strong smell as we were living in the house while the work was being performed. Now we are considering to have the exterior to be painted as well, and for sure we will hire Wilber's Painting."

"Renovo came quickly to look at the project, explained what needed to be done and gave me an estimate of the cost. Then he returned the next day to perform the work. It was a great experience. I would definitely recommend them for any siding/roofing repair."

"I hired this company to replace my roof dumpster was delivered one day before they started the job. Very hard-working guys, they remove all shingles on a 20 square roof within 2h. unfortunately the plywood was bad and need it to be replaced these guys did something that no company would do it they removed all plywood did framing repair installed 5/8 plywood and charged me only for the cost of plywood. I give them 5 stars for the job that they did and i will never deal with any other company besides HomeMaster."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.
