"Omar Hernandez did exactly what I asked him to do- replaced majority of my pool deck and two stairways. I unexpectedly requested power washing and hanging gutters on my covered porch, which he expertly accomplished. Omar was punctual and precise, from beginning to end. I’ll definitely hire him again."

"A neighbor mentioned Jorge to me a while back when I was looking for someone to help with a paint job. I am so glad they did what started as a one-time project quickly turned into an ongoing relationship. Jorge has since helped me with everything from roofing and home repairs to random odd jobs I did not even know who to call for. He is reliable, kind, and takes real pride in the quality of his work. You can tell he genuinely cares, and he approaches every job with integrity and attention to detail. He communicates clearly, shows up when he says he will, and never cuts corners. Jorge is now my first call when something needs to get done around the house. I have recommended him to others more times than I can count and for good reason. He is one of those rare people you feel lucky to have on your team."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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.

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.

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. 

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.
