I can't recommend this gentleman highly enough; his workmanship is exceptional, his crew experienced, courteous and professional. I was particularly impressed by the complete clean-up his men did, EVERY evening before going home!"

"This contractor was excellent. He took his time and did the job right. He filled all holes and crack, took his time doing proper prep work, which is the base for having any project turn out looking good. He was courteous and professional . He is a 5 star out of five star. If there are problems that were hidden and come to light he will assess them, make you aware of them and fix them. I highly reccomend his service."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

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.

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.
