"John is incredible. After weeks of getting estimates from general contractors and carpenters, John was the easiest to work with as he was straight-forward and scheduled the work within days and got it done with incredible efficiency; moreover, the quality was top notch and he went above and beyond in his demolition work to prep our basement for an interior drain system. John demo'd old drywall, removed old insulation, and meticulously dismantled the wall framing such that it can be easily reinstated after our drain system is installed. I feel lucky to have found John and look forward to working with him for much of our carpentry needs into the future!"

"Matthew and his crew did a great job on our project. They remodeled a bathroom and made a bedroom out of an unfinished room. The workers were knowledgeable and performed well. Matthew was extremely responsive and caring when working in my parents'home. We would definitely hire them again in the future."

"Jason completed the basement remodel project for $18.375. He fixed the main beam and reinforced the basement ceiling with well-placed studs and blocking. He enclosed the interior walls with sheetrock and put insulation above the ceiling. I am very happy with the work that was done and highly recommend this man. You will not find a more honest contractor. He goes out of his way to make sure that you understand everything about the project. You will definitely think of Jason as a good friend who has your back."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them.
