"I hired R&E to install cabinets, a kitchen island and transoms. They came in and did a beautiful job. They were respectful and communication was excellent. The price was fair. I would recommend Rooster & Eagle for your home improvement needs."

"The ramp and mini-deck is very sturdy, and we are happy with it. They worked fast and showed up when they said they would. When they found out via my first review that I needed spindles on the sides to keep my grandchildren from falling in my little pond, they called me and offered to place them at no extra charge. Yay. They know the building codes, they follow through. I would definitely hire them again."

"OOO Construction did a superb job with our deck extension and skirting! First, they did research that helped us find the best solution for our project. Next, they showed up ready to work. This is a HARD WORKING team. Plus, the quality of the job can be seen down to the details! We love our deck and porch! Thank you, John and John!"

"Following a bumpy start, our screened-in deck project went very well. John Beattie's crew is top notch, highly skilled, professional and with a demonstrated desire to exceed expectations. The roof and framing over the deck went up in one day. I am very pleased with the result. My only concern was that communications could have been better at the start of the project."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

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
