"Justin did an awesome job building our dock. He solved a few problems we had with the existing dock and reimagined the space to a much more usable pier/dock while working within our existing footprint. We also used for several house repairs and was very pleased with all results. All work was completed in a timely manner and work site was always cleaned up. We were informed every step of the process. I would definitely recommend for dock and any handyman needs."

"We hired Canales LLC to repoint a waist high brick facade, extend a privacy fence by 25 feet, and replace the aluminum and soffit around our home. Erick and Mary Ella were communicative in providing a quote, discussing the project, and providing a timeline for each stage of the work. Amazingly, they were able to provide a crew to complete everything in two days. Additionally, they cleaned up the site and somehow removed and replaced the existing gutters around a large immovable pergola in our backyard. All in, the cost for everything was far more reasonable than other larger contractors with lower ratings. I'll post photos of the work on their Google Reviews page."

"We are very pleased with the quality of work and the professionalism of Casey and the AML crew. The work was completed in the timeframe we requested and within the price range we expected. Casey was extremely responsive to emails and text messages and adaptable to change requests. The crew was very respectful and accommodating in their work schedule and did a great job keeping the construction area safe and clean. We were very pleased and plan to use them again for future projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

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.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

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