"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 Douglass's work surpassed our expectations. Not only was he very professional, diligent and meticulous from the onset to delivery, but he also provided impressive creative input into the design of our finished deck. Ian delivered his work on time and was always available for any questions throughout the process. We are very happy with our finished deck and highly recommend him both as a professional, as well as the superior quality of his custom design carpentry."

"I had a client who wanted their window replaced with glass block. It is not a common installation these days but Demren was confident he was able to it and did it with a smile on his face. He was even graceful when there was a mishap with materials being delayed and came back to complete the work without a problem. The window looks great and both the client and I are very happy with the results. In most cases carpentry is one part skill and the other is being creative and intuitive in problem solving. Demren has no doubt an eye for detail and a very diverse set of skills. Highly recommended."

"Joe was our contact and did all the work. He was excellent. They promptly provided a Bid at a very fair price, followed through with quick service. Joe is very knowledgeable and helpful in getting you what you want and then doing an outstanding job. He even helped me put a sliding in and out while I was replacing its rollers. We highly recommend Deschutes Deck Care."

"Jon was very responsive and came out the same day to provide a quote. He was very professional and explained things thoroughly. He showed up right on time and completed the job within the time frame provided. He has good knowledge and also provided some items that might need to be addressed in the future. Would definitely hire him again if a need arises."

"The owners were professional from the original bid to the final closeout of the work. they kept me informed as to their progress each day and we walked through the work area before they left each day. My garage cabinets and new wood flooring are beautiful. they are young and eager to build up their client base. i appreciated that they would also point out things that i should take care of soon that i did not realize and made a great referral to me to get it done because it was out of their scope of work. these guys will be booked up solid soon like most good contractors are in Bend are these days."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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.

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.

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000
