"Nathan put in the gravel driveway (with underlay clay) and contracted an all metal garage to be built by installers. His team built the forms and contracted for the concrete pad to be poured that the garage now sits on. His efforts were not easy. Through his efforts we are pleased with the results. Nathan is a great guy to deal with."

"Polite contractor who responded to the request on Angi quickly; covered the hardware on the fence; cleaned up afterwards. I did see a tiny bit of overspray in one spot on my vinyl siding even though they used heavy paper to shield. It was a bit windy. However, a Mr Clean Magic Eraser took it right off with one wipe."

"Del Phillips did an outstanding job renovating our upstairs spare bathroom. From start to finish, he was professional, reliable, and extremely detail-oriented. He took the time to explain the process, kept the work area clean, and made sure every step was completed to the highest standard. The finished bathroom looks incredible — better than we imagined — and the craftsmanship is top-notch. Del’s communication throughout the project was excellent, and he completed the work on time and within budget. We couldn’t be happier with the results and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and skilled contractor."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.
