"They did multiple projects - a block wall planter, enlarged a driveway made of pavers, enlarged the front walk and front porch entrance with pavers, installed chain downspouts. Yavapai Landscaping was very easy to work with - they came when they said they would come and were no problems working with. They did everything we wanted done with no problems. They did the work exactly on budget. They were a breath of fresh air compared to some of the contractors we have hired. They were easy to contact. We were very satisfied with the work. We highly recommend them."

"Being out of state, it was going to be harder to describe what needed to be done and getting it fixed. Adrian contacted us promptly, got us the quote and was able to repair our deck quickly. He even FaceTime us as he was doing the work and plenty of pictures after to show us what he did. All of that was so appreciated and a very well done. On top of it all, his pricing was very reasonable. If we need anything done in the future, I know who we will be contacting!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

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.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.
