"yes Victor was great, came out quick for estimate, once agreed on he started next day. Only b/c of cement work did it take 2 days. He replaced rotten wood siding and placed metal support post on storm damaged carport. Victor is good at his work, very detail oriented and conscientious worker."

"I recently had to have my kitchen repaired after a frozen pipe at the end of December 2022. It took me months to find an honest, reputable and ethical contractor. Gratefully I was referred to Danny Did It. I am so grateful for that referral. Danny and his crew are all some of the kindest and most dedicated contractors I have met. He treated my small job as if he were remodeling a million-dollar house. His communication was amazing. When he said he or his crew were going to be at my home at a certain time they were and if he was running late he always called or communicated with me. I appreciate that he respected my time. I appreciate his laid back and patient attitude. I had to delay the job several times and Danny was very understanding when I told him, and reassured me that he would be ready when everything got sorted out. For someone who was going through their first, and I hope last, water damage repair and learning how to navigate homeowner's insurance claims his reassurances made a huge difference to me. His attention to detail showed in the quality of his work, and his choices were always spot on with what I wanted. This is because he took the time to get to know me, my style and personality. The young men he hired to help him shared his same level of attention to detail and desire to do the job well. I also enjoyed watching him teach these young men what it means to be a good contractor, to take pride in their work and how to do the work right. After hearing all of the horror stories that my friends have told me about their experiences, I am so happy that I found Danny Did It. He made what has been a very stressful situation much easier by being the type of person and business owner that can be counted on. I highly recommend Danny Did It for any home repairs or remodels that you need. He is the best."

"This company did an amazing job with a deck build for us! We showed them some ideas we had and they made some small but impactful design tweaks and came up with something even better than what we’d imagined! Really professional crew - showed up on time, cleaned up after themselves, and - most importantly - build a beautiful, high-quality deck! Would definitely recommend."

"David and his father, Jose, were outstanding! They arrived on time, were exceptionally professional and I couldn’t be happier with the end result. There were no surprises, explaining every step of what they were doing and answering any question I had. I would (and likely will) use J&D Woodwork again without a doubt!"

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.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

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.

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
