"My husband and I wanted to add a deck to our home, and we hired KI Exteriors to bring our vision to life. The experience exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. Not only did they build a beautiful deck, but they also installed a french door off our living room, and it completely transformed the space. The craftsmanship is outstanding, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We truly love the work they did and highly recommend KI Exteriors, Konstantin And Yurie to anyone looking for quality workmanship and exceptional service. We would gladly work with them again on future home improvement projects."

"As first-time homebuilders, Dennis took the time to guide us through this overwhelming process; he was so professional throughout the entire build. He fought to find high quality subcontractors at affordable prices. Overall, Dennis was able to keep us on schedule and within budget. His level of detail is unbelievable, he ensured everything was done to our liking and to his high quality standard. We highly recommend Craftsman Homes. We will definitely use Dennis for any future remodels!"

"Working with PacNorWest for our cabinetry for our new home was one of the highlights of the build process! Dustin and his team were great to work with from Day 1. Dustin was super patient with all of my questions, indecisiveness, back and forth in tweaking the designs, and went above and beyond to educate me and show me options (including meeting me at the residence multiple times, taking me to one of his recently completed projects, and bringing me multiple samples of woods and stains). Our GC also spoke very highly in working and coordinating with the PacNorWest team. Our cabinets are BEAUTIFUL and a highlight of our home. We received quotes from larger cabinet manufacturers and PacNorWest's prices were competitive with truly unbeatable service and quality. I would highly recommend PacNorWest for any of your cabinetry needs!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.
