"From start to finish the project ran very smooth. They handled everything in a professional manner and were very clean. I was kept up to date on the progress and schedule. Change orders were discussed during the project so there were no surprises at the end. I would without hesitation hire ASB Renovations again."

"We lived out of town and Sam handled a lot of problems for us that he didn't have too. He also took time to help us pick out different appliances and fixtures. Helped us with ideas for a laundry room when others said it couldn't be done. His sub contractors did a good job for the most part. Needed some minor follow up on some work."

"Well the guy was suppose to get back to me with a quote and basic design but never got in touch with me again. It also seemed like we talked more about financing (they do internal financing) then we did about the actual addition. Definitely was a turn off but I did not write them off until they never contacted me again.

Front view of the covered wrap around porch, with white porch railings and columns. The lattice work below the porch helps to give a backdrop for the shrubbery.
Exterior view of the in-progress attached garage addition build. As you can see, the necessary siding was removed from the existing home so we could attach the garage build.
Overall view of the newly constructed back deck, which leads to the now covered patio area, via the spiral staircase.
Front view of the log cabin entry room addition highlights the stunning front door with dual sidelights.
Back view shows how much the new build towers above the existing one-story homes in the neighborhood.

"I have been trying for a while to find a contractor for various small projects around my house. They ranged from plumbing to electrical to cosmetic (painting & fixtures). I was unsuccessful in finding someone for well over a year until a friend recommended Joel. From the moment I called, he was amazing. We set up a time for him to do a walk thru, I was sent a written quote quickly and he started the project immediately. Joel was honest, kind, efficient, affordable, and explained everything to me so I could understand every step of the process. I have already retained Joel for another indoor project, will be having him do an outdoor project once the Spring comes and have been recommending him to anyone I know. I can't speak highly enough of him and his services!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

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:
