"I called and they responded immediately.. Came out to house and gave a reasonable estimate for job.. I hired them and they had the job done in two days, workers were nice and friendly. They matched my siding and you can not even tell where the new siding was installed. Very happy with the job they did, decided to get to do my gutters also, and get a estimate for them to paint and seal my new deck. Patricia P"

"SwiftBuild Construction replaced my roof and gutters as well as repaired some exterior woodwork. The experience was professional, no new upcharges came up that were not discussed at the time of the contract, if some issues were found they completed the work without any adjustments to the price. The site was cleaned up completely, their supervisors were on site all the time to answer any questions. Prices were competitive and the work schedule was followed closely. Completely satisfied."

Customers say: True professional

"I spoke with Boris to explain the problem I was having with my exterior front doors. We were having a lot of problems opening and closing the door. The frame was offline and the door dragging on the ground. The doors were in good condition but the frame was causing a head ache. I thought I would have to replace the whole unit (doors and frame). Golden Touch Remodelers fixed the frame and adjusted the doors. We were relieved. The worker were curious and easy to work with. They made sure that we were satisfied with the work. I would use them again."

"Shaw's House was the absolute correct choice. As you can see from the photos, I had an odd ask- building a very slim upright coat rack in a tight space. The product was even better than I'd envisioned- the idea for a modular pegboard was all Mr. Shaw. They were kind, responsive, worked quickly, and most importantly, built an incredible piece of hardware that looks great and works perfectly in our apartment. Could not recommend more Shaw's House more highly. A++."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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.

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

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.
