"I bought a old house that for whatever reason, did not have a pantry door I'm not into open shelving so for 3 months I shopped around to see if I could get a door for the pantry. After going to both Home Improvement companies and a custom door retailer, I learned because of the dimensions of the doorway (narrower than the standard) this was going to be a huge challenge. I did not want to remove my door jamb which was in great shape to hang a door. I called KW company early one morning and by noon Kristin was at my door. She looked at the pantry and told me she could build one. And she did exactly that the very next day! She took a piece of thinner piece of wood and cut it to fit perfectly) without taking off my door frame. She didn't charge me a arm and leg to do it. I love my door and show everyone who comes over. I tell them a Woman built this! Prices are reasonable and they are professional. I will call them for my next project."

"Robert and his crew were fabulous. They operated professionally and with integrity. They started work each morning around 8:00 am sharp. My husband and I are very please with our Bathroom Remodel. I also had other small jobs done while they were there. They did not complain but were willing to accommodate me and my ideas. I will be hiring them again for our future Home Renovation Projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

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.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.
