"I am not pleased with the service I received! They damaged my waterline and stated someone would be out to fix it. It's been 9 months and no one will return my calls nor have they come to fix what they damaged! They ruined my lawn and never came back to replace the soil they dug up! They ruined my basement floor and I had to replace my entire floor! They said they would be out to test the sump pump and drains that were installed, again, it's been 9 months and no one has followed up with me! I'm really concerned that the lifetime warranty they say I have even exists!"

"BUYER BEWARE: I purchase a custom door from Pella back in Nov 2021. The salesman was great, and he took a credit card payment for half the amount (3750.00) before leaving and scheduled my install for June 2022. There was a delay in getting the door put in, but the day that it was put in, 2 men showed up. One was younger and the other was an older gentleman. The older gentleman did not speak English, so I communicated through the younger man during the process of install. When install was over, the younger man asked how I wanted to pay. I stated that I wanted to pay with credit card. He informed me it was too late in the day to pay with card (Why didn’t he ask me prior to them shutting off payments? How would I know there was a deadline when I paid the deposit even later during the initial payment?). He asked if I had a check, and I stated no, that my checkbook was at the barn where my daughters horse is located. He mentioned that I could pay the next day over the phone, but it really needed to be settled that day. So, I went into the safe and got out 4000.00 I had from selling our previous family horse a few months prior. I put the money in an envelope and walked it outside. The older man was loading trash and debris into the back on the truck, and I handed him the envelope and told him thank you. The envelope contained the payment and a 250.00 tip, due to the guys working outside in the heat all day. He shook his head and smiled and we went our separate ways. About a week later I get a phone call from Pella asking for my payment. I explained that I gave the older man cash, and the situation. They stated that they would check with the installers and get back to me. To my surprise, they called back and said they didn’t have the money!!! I was shocked! I told them that the man was loading trash when we gave it to him, so maybe it ended up in the back of the truck. They checked into that, and found out that it had not. At this point I am starting to realize I was stolen from by Pella employees/contractors. Did the guy not tell me about the credit card machine so I would have to pay another way? Did the man I gave the money to think it was all a tip because he couldn’t speak English and didn’t understand me? I am very upset. About a week later I get a call from someone from corporate telling me I have to pay the balance or they will be taking me to court! WHAT? Your installers stole from me, and now you are requiring me to PAY again? I am just a single person, this is a HUGE company. 3750.00 is make or break for my family. This company makes millions. And they are coming after me for money that their installers did not report as paid? I am not sure what kind of company abides by this lack of morals and customer services, but I am appalled. I would recommend that no one use them, unless you want to be scammed, stolen from, or gone after in court to repay something you already did. DO NOT BUY!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

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.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry.
