Customers say: Quick response

"This spring, we were looking to teardown our current deck and construct a larger one. Mike was the first person to come and survey the job. We were incredibly impressed with his expertise and professionalism. While we entertained a few other deck contractors, Mike was the by far the best choice. After signing our contract with him, his work validated our decision. He created detailed blueprints (to scale!), adjusted his plans when our needs slightly changed and had a keen eye for the aesthetics of decking colors and how they would work with our home. Once the construction started, Mike set up a very reasonable payment schedule based on task completion and kept us updated daily on his next steps. After the deck was completed, we knew that it not only looked amazing but also well built. His crew was always courteous and professional. We were impressed by his attention to detail as Mike matched our deck, steps and skirts with the same color pattern. Mike not only built us a deck â he DESIGNED us a deck. We also appreciated the time he took when our deck was complete to power wash it, and seed the grass around the finished product. The compliments we have received from neighbors, family, and friends have made it undeniable â Mikeâ s work is impeccable and worth every cent."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.
