"Over the past few years, we have worked with Tool Masters Home Improvement Inc. for several projects around our house and are always very satisfied with the result. Our first experience with them was for a bathroom remodel and we could not be happier. The quality and detail of craftsmanship is superb and has completely transformed new life to what once was an old, out-of-date bathroom. Just recently we renovated our upstairs which was pretty much only used for storage space. It is now two spacious bedrooms with vaulted ceilings giving it the whole area a nice open feel. We have a few more projects weâ d like to do in the near future and will definitely reach out to Tool Masters Home Improvement Inc. again."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Cedar and cypress are great wood choices for a window planter box because they’re readily available and won’t break the bank. However, there are plenty of wood types appropriate for a window flower box. Try using redwood for its natural resistance to rot, though it is on the expensive side.

Pole barns and carports are similar in that they rely on posts for support and are often not connected to a primary structure. The main difference between the two is that pole barns usually include walls that surround the entire perimeter of the structure, while carports generally remain open on three or four sides. It’s possible to insulate garage doors and even exterior walls on pole barns to create a comfortable workspace, and it’s a bit more secure for storage purposes. However, carports are more affordable.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

Wood carports provide weather protection for vehicles, serve as multipurpose spaces, and add aesthetic and functional value to properties.
