Customers say: True professional

"Excellent work done. Very professional and conscientious. Provided an estimate (price and time to completion) and stayed within budget and time frame. Kept me informed as to when he would arrive and when he would be done for the day and ALWAYS communicated any unforeseen changes that occurred. I have always been critical when it comes to what I expect(for home improvements) but he exceeded all my expectations. I will definitely hire him again for future services."

"There aren't enough stars to adequately rate how much I am pleased with Leo's High Quality Construction! Great communication, very skilled carpenters, efficient, reasonable, and very hard working. As a retired journeyman carpenter myself, I knew what I wanted and how I wanted it done. They accommodated my every want and improved on it by sharing some newer techniques and products. The finished deck with handicap ramp was completed timely and everything I hoped for. While here, I was also looking for a fence around around a patio. I found who will be building that also! Already got started."

"John installed crown and base molding throughout entire kitchen. He drywalled areas where walls had been removed and arches expanded. He was very efficient, professional, and completed the job as agreed on time and within budget. We will use him in the future for other remodeling projects!"

"Our screened in porch was riddled with rotten wood and had become a comfortable home for carpenter ants. Angel (WI Innova Construction) and his team essentially rebuilt the porch and replaced all the screens. They also replaced some siding that bubbled because it was too close to a grill and replaced a floor board in a balcony. They worked efficiently and effectively, protected our plants and cleaned up well. Angel provided a very fair estimate for the job that broke out labor and materials. He communicates very and we will continue to use WI Innova Construction for our outside construction needs."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

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. 

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.

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 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.
