Hello, my name is Al Birkenmeier, I am president of Birkenmeier and Sons, Inc.. So grateful for Angie's List and the Super Service Award 11 years in a row. I started my custom building and remodeling company in 1980 after 9 years in the commercial construction industry working with companies like McCarthy Bros., Hercules and Tarlton. I have pursued my love of providing the highest quality of construction while working hard at keeping my overhead down to keep it as affordable as possible. The proof is always in what my past has to offer so please don't hesitate to contact my past clients through a client reference list I would be happy to share with you as 99.9% are not Angie's List Members. Our quality of work and service is second to none so please let us offer you a no cost estimate and opinion for your next custom home or remodeling project. Thank you much, Al Birkenmeier

"I’m not sure where to start with this review. I faced several challenges with insurance and finding the right contractor to take care of spring storm damage and make repairs to work a previous contractor performed to my home. I met with Al Birkenmeier and showed him everything that needed to be repaired. The QUALITY of the materials and work done was impeccable and reminded me of how things use to be done years ago. Bobby, the carpenter, treated me respectfully and didn’t cut corners. Al only uses subcontractors he trusts to do the same quality work and ALL of those subs did exactly that! My house is fixed and is warmer due to the other work that needed to be redone just in time for winter. I can’t thank Al, Bobby, and the Subs enough and I appreciate ALL of the work done. The work wasn’t just good enough, it was above and beyond my true expectations!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

DIY is possible, but professional construction ensures structural integrity and proper anchoring.
