"Konstantin and his crew did an amazing job and the deck looks great. The crew was respectful, pleasant, and hardworking. They did a great job and communicated with us through the process. They offered a lot of options and were able to start almost immediately. I highly recommend Konstantin and his crew and will definitely be hiring these guys in the near future to build us a pole barn/deck."

"They did a great job. Love my new parking pad. Got on the schedule within a couple of weeks. They showed up on time and got done early. Quote was very reasonable and was accurate after the job was completed."

"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!"

"We have used Home Helpers numerous times for plumbing work in our home. They installed our sink and faucet in our kitchen. Our faucet came loose and they came out and tightened it back up for no charge. No matter what the job they will be our first call."

Customers say: True professional

"EXCELLENT! HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I cannot speak highly enough of Ken's work. He was responsive, competent, pleasant and highly professional. He was also willing to come out to the north part of town (we are in Colbert). We had a couple of projects -- one rather urgent (major ice load in our eaves after the heavy snow storm that was causing water flow issues around the house) and a minor issue related to our washing machine water hookup. He diagnosed the problems and tended to their solutions within a day of calling him. He cleaned up everything when he was done and left our house better than when he showed up. We are new to the area and will use him for any handyman job we need from here on out."
Using a hose with a nozzle, ladders, brushes and gloves, I removed tree debris from the gutters on this single story residence.
Great looking house.
The plow truck blocked my client in leaving her now way out. I quickly cleared a road in and proceeded to the front door.
Heavy snow removal work up on a roof top.
This is what the project looked like just after paint went on.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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

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.
