"Shore Points Construction- The BEST!! We had an old deck removed and a new one installed by Shore Points. The owner Mario and his assistant Fred came out and spent a great deal of time designing our new deck. They had material samples and answered all of our questions. We scheduled and their men were prompt, courteous and very professional. The new deck is exceptional!! It is many steps above the run of the mill that other contractors were suggesting. Their pricing was competitive and worth every cent. We are enjoying our deck so much and would recommend that you use this company for any of your construction needs. We will be calling them back in the future for other projects."

"These guys are on it! Hired them after interviewing many contractors. Unfortunately, I had gotten burned by previous contractors down the shore. Not only did they pay attention to all minor details, they also provided great input and guidance on my kitchen remodel. I would recommend these guys to my own family, friends, and neighbors. Thank you Ron!!"

"I recently hired Diamond Interiors to remodel my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, their team was professional, detail-oriented, and truly committed to delivering top-quality work. Every step of the project was handled with care, clear communication, and craftsmanship that exceeded my expectations. The transformation of my home is incredible—beautiful finishes, clean lines, and thoughtful touches throughout. They stayed on schedule, kept the workspace tidy, and made the entire process stress-free. It’s rare to find a contractor who combines skill, reliability, and pride in their work the way Diamond Interiors does. I highly recommend them to anyone considering a remodel. Outstanding job—thank you, Diamond Interiors! From Dan W."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

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.

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

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.
