"I recently completed a six-month project with NRG Remodeling, and I couldn't be more impressed! The renovation of my 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, and kitchen went smoothly from start to finish. The communication was top-notch, and the team worked quickly and efficiently, all while maintaining very fair pricing. The quality of the workmanship was outstanding, and the entire experience was stress-free—much smoother than I anticipated. It's rare to find such a professional and personable team, and I’m already planning my next project with them. I would absolutely recommend them for any home renovation and will definitely turn to them for future work!"

"Josh McAlister and his team were professionals. They arrived every day at the time when they said. They were respectful of our property and always informed us when problems were found. We were definitely pleased with the work they did (tear down of old deck, replace and paint of rotten boards removed from house). They also removed all construction debris when they left. We highly recommend McAlister Construction and will be hiring them again for our home remodeling and repair."

"Jose and his crew are great at building and installing Kitchen style cabinets!! I called and interviewed 3 cabinet makers and considered him the most knowledgeable. I used to do carpentry work but am no longer able to due to a back injury. He built me a large closet for my mudroom and my wife and I very happy with the finished product. My son and his wife are going to hire him to build an entertainment center."

"I've had to deal with a lot of contractors this past year due to water damage in the house, so I am very suspicious when it comes to selecting contractors and, because of bad experiences, I know what to look for in a contractor. I went with Dreamscapes for my landscaping job because I felt comfortable that they were honest and would do a good job (and secondarily they were the lowest bidder!). Mike delivered on everything I expected (and more), and the work that they did was outstanding. My backyard looks great - better than it ever has! I highly recommend Mike and Dreamscapes, and will definitely use them again for other projects that I have planned."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

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.

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
