"The handyman process went very well! Chris was able to identify the issue and was able to fix it whilst going the extra mile to make sure that it was done right. I would highly recommend this person for pretty much any home repair project you can think of!"

"The owner, Willis, called immediately to come to the house to give a quote. He said because it was a small job, so he would fit it in when he's working in the area. And that's what happened. He called one day to be sure we'd be home. He came and did the deck repairs in 2 hours. We were extremely satisfied with the arrangement and with the outcome. Willis did more than he originally thought, but stayed with the original estimate. He was polite and respectful of our property."

"The sales rep Tim was very professional and patient with me. Throughout the sales process he listened to all my concerns and explained the process from beginning to end. I know that I would have problems with wood replacement and tim made sure to make note of that. During the install there was a miscommunication with the crew and that lead to inadequate wood repair in the beginning. At this point I called the project manager Walter and explained the situation to him. Shortly after Walter came to my house with the field manager Mike and they both did a more thorough inspection of the wood repair and we came to the solution that best fit my home. After the wood repair incident everything went very smoothly. The crew worked very hard and did beautiful work after they took care of the newly installed wood. Overall the experience good. There was a problem but the way the company responded was great and I was very happy with the final outcome of the project."

"Good communication throughout the process. Worker explained issue in detail and made appropriate recommendations. Only negative thing to say is that they could have cleaned up after completing work better. Debris and old nails were left on my deck."

Small jobs welcome

"I couldn’t ask for a better contractor to trust with my projects than Phil and the WeBuild Construction crew. I went to Phil with a vision of what we wanted, he provided excellent input and help us build our project and turned in into reality. Exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. Creativity and willingness to customize and make our building exactly what we wanted. It went from a basic bare bones pole building to a custom built rough cut lumber lean-to/sitting area add on and an awesome loft that wouldnt have been possible without him helping us build our vision into something special. Aside from our pole barn build, he has done outstanding work adding sliding barn doors and repairing our 100 yr old barn with slate roof. Not much the WeBuild crew couldnt do. Cant recommend them enough!"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors.
