I have over 30yrs experience in construction from buildings in downtown Anchorage to private homes. I have a great deal of knowledge in all aspects of construction from framing, concrete work, and drywall to interior trim work, cabinet installation, and tile work. I enjoy a challenge and appreciate new ideas.

Offering high quality construction for everyone’s finish carpentry needs. We strive to complete the best quality and expert craftsmanship possible for our customers. We have built a reputation for being honest, affordable, and treating our customers like family. We take pride in offering our clients accurate quotes that they can trust from conception to completion. No surprises. No hidden fees. Just reliable and honest service estimates.

"AWESOME....couldn't be happier with the experience. There were several delays (no fault of the contractor's), and the project from quote to finish spanned about 7 months. Mike at Aurora Homes kept us in the loop every step of the way. His quote was fair and graciously included a senior discount. Once work finally got underway, the crew was all here early every morning and worked their tails off all day. Initial time estimate was two weeks -- they got it done in 5 days. Workmanship is superb and it looks fantastic, and Mike worked with me every step of the way to handle any issues. They also did an amazing job of cleaning up the mess. To top it all off, Mike and the crew were all super nice guys to work with. HIGHLY recommend Aurora Homes!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Yes, in all cases, it should be more affordable to build your own carport than it would be to hire a professional to do the work. The material costs can sometimes cost a little more through a professional because they can mark it up for delivery and procurement costs. You’ll also save hundreds or thousands on labor fees if you install your carport yourself.

Wood carports provide weather protection for vehicles, serve as multipurpose spaces, and add aesthetic and functional value to properties.

Most wooden carports take 3-7 days to construct, depending on size, complexity, and weather conditions.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.
