"This was a major remodel project  with complete redo of dining room, two living areas, master bedroom and bath (most of the first floor of our two story home). After attempting to get several bids for the work we chose Gill Construction for their timely response, reasonable prices and highly personal approach.  We had used them for an addition to our home 10 years ago and had remembered what a positive experience we had then.  From the very first meeting with Jerry and Mickey we were impressed with their professionalism, creativity and obvious interest in our project.  We were especially pleased when the subcontractors were brought in during the estimate process which gave me great comfort in the validity of the bid.  Jerry came back 3 times to make sure all areas were covered and then provided a detailed quote.   (I will say that the other companies I tried were slow in getting back or very high in their quote. ) Our project started on the date chosen and we also agreed to a completion date i(as we all know, these jobs can often drag on.... more on that later).  From the very first day, the Gill crew showed up on time and worked diligently.  There was a steady flow of workers and I never had to call and ask where somebody was or if someone was going to show up.  There had obviously been a focused effort on coordinating each step of the work.  I was in constant communication with Mickey throughout the job and cannot say enough about how well he keep me informed and updated on what to expect.  Every time he said someone would be there, they were!!  This was such a nice part of the experience.   We have done other projects with other companies and I always seemed to be calling to ask why people were not showing up.  Not so with Gill!   And not only do they show up...the subs are all polite, professional and incredibly skilled craftsman!  Even when we made some changes along the way (and we made several!), they were quick to accommodate and made sure we were happy with every choice and decision.  They also did an amazing job keeping up with daily clean up and keeping the house livable for us.   And finally, everything was completed a full week ahead of schedule!!!  That is unheard of in my experience!   Though I know they had other projects going, we never felt like we were not getting their full attention.   And we never felt like they were rushing through just to meet a deadline. We could not be more proud of the finished product or more impressed with Gill Construction!   We truly have a transformed home with beautiful, high quality, unique ,custom features that absolutely exceeded our expectations.  Jerry and Mickey were involved every step of the way and have a true commitment to customer satisfaction.   There is no question where we will turn for any future home projects.  (I won't waste my time trying to get bids from any others.)  If you are looking for a reputable, trustworthy, and price competitive contractor, do yourself a favor and give them a call!   These guys will do it right! I would definitely add a few +++ to that overall A rating!!"

"Mr. Pena has been far more responsive that I've experienced with other contractors in Lubbock. His person installed the deck boards and there were a few that were less than ideal. I pointed them out and he agreed and fixed them within 24 hours. He is very responsive, always has ideas to improve the project and as a result it feels more like a partnership that a contractor relationship.As a result of his quality we've moved from a small job to over $15K of work."

"The Basement Kings finished their LARGE job this morning, and I can’t praise them enough! They had a long, difficult job, but no complaints. When they discovered a problem, they fixed it. No problem, that’s their job. They found the water problem had a lot to do with drainage, so they worked outside in cold & rain & developed a system to carry water away from the house. That, to me, was over & above, but they said their main objective was to get & keep the basement dry, so they did what they had to do with no complaints. Now you can’t ask for better than that - they give their all! I am totally amazed!!"

"We have used JG?s construction for two large projects and they delivered a professional product. Most impressive: they arrived on time, the estimate was on point, time frame projected was accurate, listened to my concerns and requests, prep and clean up done well, very polite and respectful. We would definitely contract JG?s Construction again."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

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.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.
