"Victor’s team came out and stained our cabin and made some repairs. They were very professional and prompt. The work was excellent and completed on time for a very reasonable price. I will definitely call Victor again in the future if I have work to be done. Butch Gaskins"

"We recently had construction work done on our home by D&D siding and construction and are thrilled with the results. We had extensive deterioration on our dormers. Not only did D&D construction replace the damaged material they determined what caused the initial damage and took steps to insure that this reoccur. Their communication regarding the process was clear from start to finish and the workmanship was topnotch. I would highly recommend for any building or repairs."

"Two fine men with steady hands, Built dreams with wood and strong deck stands— Austin, with a measured eye, Andrew, lifting spirits high. They came with tools and hearts aligned, Each plank laid true, each board well-timed. With hammer’s song and sawdust rain, They raised a porch from earth again. The joists were set, the beams stood proud, A sturdy frame that spoke aloud Of craftsmanship both sure and kind— A labor shaped by heart and mind. By sunset’s glow, the work was done, A place to sit beneath the sun, Where laughter lives and peace can land— All thanks to Andrew’s, Austin’s hands. Now every nail and timber speaks Of honest work, of strong and sleek— A deck, but more: a gift well-earned, Where joy and gratitude have turned."

"Russell replaced a very large window in our 60+ year old house. He understands home construction so well and did a wonderful job, not only installing the new windows, but rebuilt the rotten window framing too. He is reasonably priced, professional, friendly, and very easy to work with. The new window looks so great. We are really happy with the work."

"Luis and his crew are excellent. They did an excellent job on painting my outside trim and doors and garage door. They also repaired part of my garage door framing that had come loose and repaired a part of my gutter which was leaking. They were very organized during the prep and cleanup during the painting process. All were very professional and answered all my questions. I would definitely recommend Luis and team. I have already discussed a project I would like for them to do for me later in the future."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

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:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

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.
