LM Coatings is a small, family-owned business in Knoxville, Tennessee. When my wife and I started this company, we only offered residential painting services. We later expanded to commercial painting. Eventually, we realized that we have skills that extend beyond painting, and so our remodeling services were added. You get the top-quality service you expect from a painting and remodeling business, along with the friendly customer service of a local, family-run business. Please call us directly at 865-469-6152 to schedule a free estimate. We look forward to working with you.

"I would hire LM coating again without question. He started on the day he said he would. He crew showed up on time and cleaned up at the end of each day and most importantly they did a great job"

"Professional, respectful and most pleasant experience with Jason and Dustin. At 95, my Mom still lives in the same 50+ year old house in need of a helping hand. “D&J” replaced both decayed front porch posts. They also advised relocating her 4 vertical house #’s horizontally much higher in an open area for better visibility. They also volunteered to trim two large branches hanging low. We love the big difference they made in a short time. High recommendations to them and their work!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are some rules regarding how far your exterior bump-out can go. For a cantilever bump-out that avoids the need to provide additional structural support, the limit is often 24 inches. However, if a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can encompass a whole room or more. Remember that many residential properties are subject to limits regarding the total house size relating to the size of the lot. 

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

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

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.
