Customers say: Super punctual

"This started out as a water leak in the bathroom that ended up wrecking the floor and drywall. Which caused me to involve my insurance company. I had to get numerous estimates which most of the companies said they couldn't match the drywall to the original and John Erwin Construction even refused to come out because they were "too busy". Dennis was the first contractor to get the insurance agent to respond to me in a timely manner. We had the bathroom repaired with a new tub and backing which was nicer then our original. The drywall was matched perfectly. We could barely tell the difference even without painting. The flooring looks great. We did have a slow down because of a manufacturer defect in the flooring but was kept notified of progress and time frame during the wait. Would highly recommend to friends and family. Very helpful and easy to deal with."

He did a little of everything, including installed 100+ bird barriers under my eaves, replaced 11 lighting fixtures and replaced 4 outlets, repaired some tiling, fixed a n entry light, plumbed a sink, installed shelving. Work was excellent! I would definitely hire him again!"

"Dale did an amazing job on my custom outdoor building! He built custom barn doors that I had requested, used quality materials for siding and accents and even installed a window. It took less than two weeks from start to finish I couldn't believe how fast he got it up! It was the best outdoor building in the whole HOA and everyone had to ask who built it because the work was such quality! I'm hiring him again to reside the whole front of my new home, dormers, roofing, and replacing insulation."

"Dean and crew did an absolutely amazing job building an A framed patio cover to support year round grilling and summer shade needs. Dean provided a detailed quote so I knew he understood our vision for the project. He provided timely communication throughout. He took his time to ensure the project was completed professionally. They cleaned up the job site every afternoon before leaving. The quality of craftsmanship was excellent and they replaced additional siding on the back of the house so the project flowed smoothly with the existing structure. We are extremely satisfied and will not hesitate to hire Dean and Opportunity Construction for our next remodel project."

"Dalton and his crew were hired to build a roof over an existing deck and replace a rotting fence. From the get-go, they were professional and hard working. On time and efficient, they kept us informed every step of the way. The result? What seems like a beautiful new porch and yard! We even went on to hire them for an additional project, replacing trim on our home. And the cost? Quite reasonable! We highly recommend Elk Valley Construction, LLC!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

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.

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.
