"Awhile back I decided it was time to replace my old, crumbling shed. After doing a search on Angie’s List, I hired Gryphon Construction because they had good reviews. The process worked, and I must say that I’m super happy with the results I got. Not only were Akeem and company great to work with, they did an excellent job, and and I’m extremely happy with my new shed. (The only reason I’m not calling it “shop” is because I didn’t have power installed). It’s solid, has a locking door, as well as a window, and looks more like a tiny house than the shed that proceeded it. And while they were here, I also had them install a new track for a broken pocket door, which involved removing some dry wall to get at the work-out track. They did a great job on that, too, and I’m very happy with the remodel. I found them to be pleasant to do business with, as well as very conscientious, timely, and they have a strong sense of craftsmanship, which, after all, is what we all want in a good contractor. I highly recommend them!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

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.

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.
