"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."

Customers say: Quality work

"Joe was professional, punctual and efficient. He gave me an estimate on work to do. Told me a day that he could come that worked for me and showed up on time. I added a couple of jobs when he came and he did them as well. Joe did quality work installing a window, redoing my ramp to my shed and building shelves in a closet. He even guaranteed the light pole installation and would fix for free. No job was too small or big. My advice is to hire him quick before I spread the word and he isn t available!"

"The install went great for both jobs - no issues with them.  The closet insert was a no brainier.  Converting the linen closet to a drawer / door storage unit didn't go as well.  My opinion is the sales person / estimator needed more experience.  We removed the door and frame and measured from the rough studs which was not plum but took the smallest measurement. After reviewing the drawing provided by the sales person some adjustments were made.  Bottom line was we should have measured the inside of the door frame and made a minor adjustment to account for a wider trim. on one side.  Live and learn. I'd recommend getting several estimates and use this company as such.  My wife pushed this to be completed and the sales person had a buy now price.  enough said.

"I recently had the pleasure of working with G Parker Contracting for the repair and restoration of my deck stairs, and I couldn't be more impressed with the results. From start to finish, their professionalism and attention to detail were exceptional. They carefully assessed the damage, provided a clear and reasonable estimate, and completed the work on time and within budget. The quality of their craftsmanship is evident in the beautifully restored stairs, which not only look fantastic but also feel incredibly sturdy and safe. Communication was seamless throughout the project, and they ensured that everything was left clean and tidy. I highly recommend G Parker for any construction needs—this team truly exceeded my expectations."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

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.

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

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.
