"We hired Matt to put in a new paver patio with a trex landing and staircase in our backyard. He did a great job; our space is now usable and looks beautiful. We have gotten so many compliments! He gave us great suggestions when we werenâ t sure exactly what we wanted. He was on time, professional, clean, and just a really nice guy! We highly recommend him."

"Mitch with Bend Labor Trade build our family a very nice fence a few months ago. He did such a good job that we asked if he would be willing to finish a few more things around the house. He hung a very sentimental old door that we brought with us from our first home. Everything was perfect!"

"Ian was fabulous to work with! He replaced the lattice skirting around the front and back of my second home in Eagle Crest. He maintained communications throughout the project and reached out to me regularly to discuss issues that surfaced during the project. Ian is also very professional in his documentation including providing pictures of the project. I highly recommend Ian and will request his services again."

"Demren did a fantastic job repairing & replacing a glass pane in our antique cabinet. This is a cabinet which is extremely to our family and three of the individuals that contacted me about the job turned it down because they were not sure they could accomplish this correctly. Demren came to the house right away to look at the job, Accomplished the repair in a short amount of time and did an excellent job. We took his card and will be using him again in the future for building and fixing other needs around our home."

"Joe stained my deck last fall and I waited until now to review in order to see how it looked after the winter elements impacted the stain. Looks great. The last company that stained it used something inferior that actually washed off over the winter and the same exact thing happened with that company the year before that ! Wasn't going to let them waste my money a third time. Joe had the best price of 4 quotes and did a nice job with top-notch stain. Also did not leave the back gate wide open as the previous guy's helper did. Hope Joe never leaves Bend; only person I trust now."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

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.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.
