"We had a great experience with F and D. We contacted him about remodeling a kitchen and doing some other work. He came when scheduled to do an estimate, was very thorough and knowledgeable, provided suggestions to make the project better. He reached out while researching materials with questions and provided us options and gave us the quote quickly. He was very reasonable, did a thorough job, completed the project as promised and in the time promised. We also ended up having him do the kitchen, some flooring, install lights and ceiling fans and paint. We would absolutely recommend!"

"Everything went great. Matt remodeled my bathroom and updated the electrical panel. Matt was rehired in the summer to build a large deck out back and it came out amazing! He also built a 40ft long retaining wall for my trees and garden. Everything looks amazing and I love his work."

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.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

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.

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.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.
