I started Lawrence Welch Construction to bring a higher standard of craftsmanship and luxury remodeling to Omaha. I’m all about the details—the kind of work that makes your space feel truly unique. Whether it’s a full remodel, custom features, or just taking a room and giving it new life, I focus on creating spaces that work for how you live, while looking incredible. I’m not interested in doing the bare minimum. I want to deliver the best. Me and my team are all about quality—using the right materials, putting in the work, and making sure everything is done right. No shortcuts. No compromises. Just beautiful, lasting results. Lawrence Welch Construction is local, but I bring the kind of high-end standards you’d expect from the best in the world. If you’re looking to create something truly special, I’m here to make it happen.

"Buyer beware!! Doesn’t give you anything in writing, will change pricing constantly, and when you settle on a final number for final payment of $2,400, he shows up demanding $6,000 dollars and refuses to leave despite your attempts to recall all the conversations and agreement you had. Work not completed and savings gone.RUN!!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Any issue that affects the structural integrity or soundness of a home is considered a structural issue. In addition to foundation cracks, other signs of structural issues include roof leaks, bowing walls, sloping floors, gaps around windows and doors, and more.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Yes, you can hammer a nail into a wall stud. But before you do, it’s important to confirm that you’re actually nailing into a stud—and not wiring, pipes, or ductwork. To check, find a few more studs in the wall, then measure to make sure they’re either 16 or 24 inches apart.

Yes, a bowed wall can be straightened in several ways. If the bowing is minimal, it can often be straightened by installing anchors or straps. For more severe basement wall bowing, your contractor might need to excavate the soil outside the foundation and pull the wall back into its original position to straighten it.

Yes, you can replace the frame around a window by completing either a partial replacement or a full replacement. With a partial replacement, your window specialist will remove the trim around the window and replace or repair just the damaged portion. For a full replacement, your tech will need to remove the window, replace the frame, and then reinstall the window.
