"Adam replaced our deck and did a fantastic job. He offered us several options for the renovation, and gave a detailed list of pros and cons for those options. His quote was transparent and fair, and he showed up and did the work when he said he was going to. He was communicative through the entire process. We are very happy with the finished product and will be using him for future projects. I would recommend him to anyone looking for contractor-type work."

"Nael and crew helped shore up structural elements of our deck on a house we newly purchased. Nael was very friendly and accommodating along the way, and the crew overall did a great job on the deck. After doing the work we realized a small portion of additional work was needed that we had not initially accounted for â Nael was quick to assess the need, and brought his team back to ensure everything was complete to satisfaction at a rate we could agree to. I appreciate the integrity and professionalism, am happy with the work, and would recommend."

"Justin responded quickly to demo a fallen fence. after a storm. When everyone was busy, Justin was able to come out that day for a bid and the next day for a demo. The price was reasonable and he was able to work through a difficult build and make it better than the original. Craftmanship is great, and every time I walk by the fence I get a whiff of that wonderful cedar smell. I will be having him out again to do a replacement of another section before it becomes an emergency."

"Grady is a perfectionist. He is courteous, always on time, sends a text to let us know when he will arrive and most importantly, he does excellent work to a fault. We will hire Grady for any future work we might need, whether carpentry, tile or just about anything. If you want someone you can trust and has reasonable prices for the work, Grady is your man. We could not have chosen a better person for our project."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

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

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

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.
