"As all the previous reviewers have said, DC 57 Construction is definitely a 5 star company. Lucas came to my home 3 times and helped me plan out the job. The job included: rebuilding a wood ladder to the upstairs loft, installing a railing and a new door in the loft, and adding shelves in the bathrooms. In addition, Lucas installed two railings for my back deck. Lucas and Tiago are both finish carpenters and they do excellent work at a very reasonable price. I am having Lucas come back soon to install a new screen door. Hiring Lucas and Tiago was definitely a great decision as my home looks much better."

"I recently hired LionHeart Finish Carpentry for a bathroom remodel, and I honestly couldn?t be happier with the results. The entire process was smooth from start to finish. They were professional, punctual, respectful, and paid close attention to every detail. The quality of the work truly surprised me ? the bathroom came out even better than I expected. Everything looks clean, modern, and very well finished. They communicated well throughout the project and made sure everything was done the right way. It?s hard to find contractors who combine quality, professionalism, and reliability like this. I would definitely hire them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for remodeling or finish carpentry work."

"The inside work was exceptional, but the outside work was incredible. I needed a bulkhead (outside ground level stairs to the basement) repaired. i called several reputable companies to see what they could do. To a company, they said it couldn't be done. Contacted Bryan and he did it. Nuff said. You want quality at a fair price, call him immediately. You will be completely satisfied. Our only regret is he doesn't live near us anymore. if he's on your area, your are lucky"

"I hired Barry back in November of 2020 to remove one of our built-in cabinets in preparation for our plumber to replace our cast iron pipes and to install some window trim for house. Throughout the process, Barry was highly professional, personable, and the quality of his work was second to none! Barry made the process easy and I was glad that I hired him. I would highly recommend him for any type of carpentry-related job. His knowledge of woodwork is one another level. I will definitely hire him again when I need more work done in the future."

"Highly recommended. Jose and Cesar were great. They were reliable and their work was excellent. They completely remodeled our condo including 4 bathrooms, floors, fireplace/hearth, etc. It was a big job and they worked with us to make sure everything came out exactly the way we wanted. The cost was very reasonable."

"I was contacted in a timely manner and Mr. Aponte made an appointment to look at the job and give me an estimate. He was prompt and professional. We agreed upon a price and Mr. Aponte completed the work in a reasonable amount of time and at the quoted price. The work was done in the manner described to me and the finished product was what I expected it to look like. My porch railings and new column were strong, square, and level. I would highly recommend Aponte Contracting. S. Otero"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

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.
