Company Background
Michael Auldridge Design Works, based in Kula, HI, serves Upcountry Maui with skilled carpentry, fencing, and cabinetry services. Frequent winds and heavy rains common near Haleakalā often cause wooden fences in Kula to rot or lean. Michael’s team addresses these issues by building sturdy custom fences using weather-resistant materials and proper anchoring techniques. They also craft fine custom cabinets and install or reface pre-made cabinetry for homes and businesses in Keokea, Pukalani, and along Kula Highway. By combining traditional carpentry knowledge with local know-how, this business helps homeowners protect property boundaries and enhance their living spaces, all while supporting the close-knit Kula community.
Frequently Asked Questions
What causes a fence to lean or fail during Kula’s rainy season?
Heavy rains and strong winds can saturate the ground around fence posts, causing soil erosion and destabilizing the footing. If the wood isn’t rot-resistant or the posts aren’t set deep enough, the fence will lean or collapse. Over time, moisture wicks into the wood, leading to rot at the base. Michael Auldridge Design Works addresses this by using pressure-treated posts, setting them below the frost line, and installing proper drainage to keep the fence upright and strong for years.
How can I tell if my existing wood fence needs major repairs versus replacement?
Look for signs like extensive dry rot, multiple leaning posts, or loose rails that can’t be tightened. If more than 30% of the fence is affected, replacement is usually more cost-effective. Also check for termite damage or rust on the hardware. If only a few boards are damaged, you can spot-repair. Michael Auldridge Design Works provides free on-site inspections in Kula and can advise whether refacing sections or rebuilding is the better solution for your property.
Can Michael Auldridge Design Works match new cabinet doors to my existing pre-made kitchen cabinets?
Yes, we can reface your pre-made cabinets by replacing doors and drawer fronts, while keeping the existing box structure. We match the style, wood species, and stain or paint color to your current cabinets. For cabinets that have warped MDF panels or failing hinges, we often recommend full replacement of the doors for a uniform look and lasting durability. We serve Kula, Pukalani, and Makawao, and we’ll bring color samples to your home to ensure an exact match.
