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 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
While fabric and temporary carports last for just a few years, depending on the weather they must endure, well-maintained metal and wood carports can last between 10 and 30 years. In some cases, well-cared-for carports made of high-quality materials can last a lifetime. How long your carport will last depends mostly on its construction, materials, and maintenance.
Cedar and cypress are great wood choices for a window planter box because they’re readily available and won’t break the bank. However, there are plenty of wood types appropriate for a window flower box. Try using redwood for its natural resistance to rot, though it is on the expensive side.
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.
Yes, professionals offer various roofing materials, including shingles and metal, to match home aesthetics.
Trex is not stronger than wood, but it lasts longer than wood and is heavier. Trex holds up well to the elements and is resistant to termites thanks to its resilient composition of plastic, reclaimed wood, and sawdust. Trex decking is rot and warp-resistant, making it especially useful in areas that experience a lot of snow and rain.
