"Had HD carpentry repair my deck steps, and add a new handrail. Excellent work, decent prices, very polite. Cleanup was immaculate. I would give them 10 stars if I could. I would definitely recommend them and I look forward to calling them again."

"Dave and Kathy were a great team. During the initial appraisal of the painting project, they made suggestions beyond the scope of what I had originally envisioned. Their suggestions to add lighting in a linen closet, paint ceiling tiles, update light fixtures, change out interior door knobs, etc. far exceeded painting in a two story staircase. The overall project has really updated our home. During the 4 days of the project, we established a mutual beginning time, and the work area was cleaned up at the end of the day. Dave considered making small changes to adhere to building code, such as placement of smoke alarms and height of the stairway handrail. Throughout the project, Dave replaced extra light bulbs, was responsive to adding an additional lighting project in the basement, and had great suggestions for future home improvements. We are extremely happy with the work done by Dave and Kathy, and will definitely look to them for future home improvement projects!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

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.
