"I have never met a contractor more reliable than Darek. He makes the whole renovating and building process less stressful and fun. He replaced a deck in our house and help renovating most of the inside. (Until now we keep getting compliments from neighbors about the deck!) Darek is very professional and easy to work with, very knowledgeable and helpful. The best quality and value. Would recommend and use him again without hesitation!"

"Josh and his crew were very punctual, professional & polite. My bathroom remodel was somewhat challenging, due to the age of our home (1893), things were handled & everything is 100% better and more accessible if any issues occur in the future."

"Beavers Building is awesome. From planning to completion Musaddiq was amazing. He has an attention to detail that is honest and refreshing. I would definitely recommend Beavers Building for home improvement needs. Musaddiq turned my dreary ceiling into a beautiful focal point. He does not rush and problem solves as he creates the final product. I cannot say enough about his work. I hope to work with him in the future!"

"Mr. Toye was a real lifesaver. He showed up right when he said and he was easy to contact about scheduling and other questions. I needed some weird problems solved at the house I just bought and everything was expertly done! Dan's rate was very fair and I already have plans for him to do more work soon!"

"I reached out to Millwork Plus for assistance with renovating my first house. It was old and I wanted a fresh new look that was unique and customized, so it could feel like home. They listened to my ideas and provided recommendations that far exceeded my expectations. I couldn’t be happier with the level of professionalism, attentiveness and execution from this team. I highly recommend !"

"Such a pleasant experience. They communicated very well with every step of the project. They texted or called to let me know they were on their way everytime. They arrived early to start the project and completed it within the time frame given. Entire crew was polite. They didnt mind my barking dog and took the time to pet him. The work came out fantastic. They cleaned up everything even cleaning up a garden gnome that got some old roof on it. The estimate was the final cost. At no point did they care if I asked a million questions. When they left you could not tell a construction company had been here. Would highly recommend. Already given a friend their card."

"Very professional job stairs were done to code I was also impressed with their solution for a post coming down in a parking lot. They put it at an angle into the building with a go plate at the bottom, anchoring it in my hand fence came out gorgeous. They were timely and very clean about the job I appreciate their work. The job was well done."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

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.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.
