"AutLaws Carpentry came out to measure for my crown mouldings and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was prompt, reached out immediately, and met with me the same day. He measured everything carefully and double checked his measurements, which gave me a lot of confidence. He was friendly, professional, and detail-oriented. I am 100% positive I chose the right person for the job."

"Vince did an awesome job for us framing up a new door in an existing hallway, installing new drywall around the door as well as installing the door, frame, and trim. We were extremely pleased with the work and would recommend to anyone looking for similar work to be done. Vince was very communicative and matched the new door to our existing doors and trim. Highly recommend."

"Great company! Scheduling was easy. Ron B. showed up on time and was very nice and extremely thorough. He made sure to explain everything he did as we had five small projects inside and outside the house. Reasonably priced. Definitely recommend and we will use them again, specifically asking for Ron."

"Michael and his helper Ed did a great job fixing the ceiling, installing wood panels and building some shelves for our garage in September. They are professional and punctuate. The quality of their carpentry work is very good. I would definitely recommend him."

"Terri, the designer, spent about 1.5-2 hours looking at the closet, asking questions, designing the system, and providing pricing during her visit.  She listened to our requirements, answered all of our questions and explained the installation process and the requirements for removing baseboards and emptying the closet before installation.  6 weeks later, the system was installed in a few hours by one installer.  He was neat, did the cutting in his truck, and cleaned up before he left.  The installation matched the design drawings perfectly.  I was surprised at how sturdy and well-built the shelving components are.  We got a built-in laundry hamper, which is a great feature.  The company seems to be very well run, with friendly, courteous employees and quality built in to all of their work processes.  I would definitely recommend them.  Make sure to use a 40% off coupon - they are easy to find.

"Honesty Construction more than exceeded their name of the company! My deck was in dire need of repair, all floor boards, stairs, seating and top rails needed to be replaced. They worked through many options with us and patiently arrived at the best option to meet our requirements. The final work was great and they have my referral-reference any time!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.
