Roof Recovery LLC is a single member LLC committed to giving the customer quality work at fair price. My name is Tom and I have been roofing for 27 years. After working for many different companies I decided to start my own LLC who is dedicated to honesty and integrity. I keep it simple. No salesman, no sub contractors. I will not try and sell you something you don't need. A small crew and little overhead means better rates for my clients. Same material, same warranties as the big guys. After being in the trade for decades I've seen so many people get taken advantage of by huge roofing outfits. Stick with an honest contractor who is here to help you. I realize a new roof is a big investment and try my best to be as fair as possible and still be profitable. Small job? I make time for every job and WILL RETURN YOUR CALL! Hire a straight shooter. You and your wallet wont regret it. That's my guarantee. See what my clients are saying . www.roofrecoveryllc.com 484.374.2557

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
