"Khris and his son completed a full kitchen remodel for my AirBnB property in Phoenix. He finished the project on time, within budget and even helped us out with installing appliances and garbage disposal. I highly recommend Advanced Residential Solutions for your next project. If I could give more than 5 stars, this contractor would get it!"

"Sean Claffey of SWC Design & Build recently remodeled my home in Mesa AZ including removing columns and partial walls to open up and brighten the kitchen/dining area.à   The remodel involved replacing the flooring in the entire house and completely replacing everything in the kitchen including all kitchen cabinets, as well as installing a large island with beautiful waterfall quartz countertops.à   The work Sean and his team did exceeded my expectations and they communicated with me every step of the way.à   I highly recommend this team to anyone who is looking for a contractor who is reliable, honest and does top quality work."

"We had a very nasty clogged drain which was forcing the washing machine to overflow and water to come up through the laundry room sink. Bill worked hard to find the problem and resolved it promptly. He is extremely honest, and a very nice person. We will definitely hire him again. Thanks Bill!!"

Unfinished Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.
