"Evan was a great guy and a talented carpenter. He did my front porch vinyl lattice with a nice boarder and made a small access door on the side so I can access underneath the porch if need be. It received many compliments from my neighbors and recommended Evan to them. He was quick to respond to messages, provided a reasonable quote, and showed up when he said he would."

"I can't say enough great things about Floors and Walls. Joe, Stacy, and their entire team are extremely professional and kind. I needed stairs added to my existing deck and gave them a call. Stacy quickly set up a consultation and she and Joe were at my house the next day. Joe was very thorough in inspecting the existing deck and explaining stair options. They provided me with a very reasonable quote and made the contract process extremely easy. Because it was January, the stairs could not be installed immediately as the ground was frozen. However, that did not stop them from securing the lumber for the project ASAP; given that the cost of wood has significantly increased between then and now, I am extremely grateful that they had the foresight to do this and were able to get the materials at an affordable price. I had the lumber less than a week after signing the contract, and the team made sure to cover it properly to protect it from weather conditions. As soon as the soil was warm enough, Joe had his team come out here. The lead of the project was Ron and he was amazing. He and his crew were prompt, courteous, and thorough. They worked quickly and our stairs were done in just a couple of days. The quality is amazing and it looks beautiful. We were absolutely thrilled. Joe, a total perfectionist, came out a few days after completion to do an inspection of the work. He made sure a few loose ends were tied up (loose ends that neither my husband nor I would have noticed, by the way). I really appreciate that he was so thorough and clearly so invested in making sure our stairs were absolutely perfect. They also took care of the permit for us, which I really appreciate. I will 100% use Floors and Walls again in the future and highly recommend them!!"

"The crew of Prime Construction did a fantastic job on replacing my old wood deck with a new composite deck. They worked through some of the coldest days of December and January building new footers, framing, and custom cutting and placing the boards. I would recommend using them for any of your future construction needs."

"I couldn't be happier with the work Levato's did on my two decks! They were professionally refurbished and stained, and the results are absolutely beautiful the decks look refreshed, clean, and like new again. The workmanship was excellent, and I really appreciated the care and attention to detail throughout the entire process. If you're looking to have your deck refurbished or stained I highly recommend Levato's."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

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.
