"We found NW Construction totally by accident, and I'm glad we choose them. The work they provided putting our house back together after a tree falling on it was focused on quality and customer satisfaction. Their attention to detail was amazing. The crew sent to perform the work was very friendly and hard working. Can't say enough good things about this company. I would strongly recommend this company for anyone looking for any construction or remodeling needs."

"The owner called me very quickly after I put in a request on Angi and emailed a detailed and very reasonable estimate that same evening. He texted me the next day to make sure I got the estimate and I was able to talk to him about the work that day. While I have decided to put off the work for a while, I would definitely consider using his company for the work as he has provided excellent customer service so far."

"The company responding QUICKLY to my call for a painter, and gave me a quote almost immediately. They were super accommodating even though I needed my painting done that very next Monday. The owner was friendly on the phone, and set up for the job was effortless. For the work, it was perfect. They got exactly the right colors, and even went to a different store to get exactly the color we wanted for our daughter's bedroom, even though it wasn't the paint retailer they usually use. It was four rooms in one day, and there wasn't a drip in sight. Even the edges were crisp and clean. We had a MINOR touch up that we noticed during our inspection, and the woman there addressed it immediately. In the end, the price was more than fair, the job was exceedingly well done, and the customer service was as good as I have ever had--attentive, quick, and knowledgeable. I felt COMPELLED to write this great review as I was so happy to have my new home painted so quickly and so well done. These guys are really that good."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

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.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
