"Tim and John are very good at all home repair, assembly, install and sprucing up of condos and family homes. They came to my condo after my work hours; 7:00 pm, which was very convenient for me, assembled a 5 tier bookshelf with storage quickly and professionally at a reasonable price. I highly recommend 3 Nails Grace."

"John is a special person. He is my guardian angel of carpentry and staining our deck. Our deck looks new again. A few things left to do but once their done I'll be in my heaven. I have already lined up another job for John which is part of the ceiling in our garage which is coming down. John has done so many extra things for ne which I am eternally grateful. I highly would hire this gracious and perfectionist gentleman for all of my future jobs. Thank you so much John, you are the best. Jan and Lucas Willink"

"Luis and his crew did a marvellous job replacing our old wooden deck with Trex. They started when they said they would, paid meticulous attention to detail, and finished in good time. Luis kept me well-informed of their plans and listened carefully to my input. I would highly recommend LM Coatings for this kind of work in the future."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.
