Fix Electrix is a small, family business, father and son (journeyman and apprentice) that work together on all the jobs. We're not sub-contractors, although if we come across work do not know how to do, we have a vast network of professionals to recommend to the Customer. Our billing proceedures are relaxed and depends on the job. if we take on a larger job, we typically appreciate receiving a down payment, then possibly draws throughout the job (of course, that would have to be a monster of a job). But for the most part, its pretty straight forward. Check, money order or cash. We unfortunately are not set up for credit card at this time. We don't charge for estimates on new additions, such as putting up new lights or installing new machines, but we have a diagnostic charge of $65.00. Our median billing rate really depends on the job. But on an hourly basis we charge about $80.00 a month. If you want to know where our base of opperations is, take a drive down Sunrise Blvd at night-time. And coming from Roseville heading to the Sunrise Mall, you'll see a strange phenomena... A residence with groups of rotating structural artwork all lit up. Its become a bit of an attraction for the Citrus Heights area. We have people stopping to take picturres of them, coming to the door to inquire about them and we've had over a dozen (seriously) offers to purchase, or rent the pieces. Although the city of Citrus Heights isn't a big fan, it is our freedom to express our artistic abilities. So come and check them out, and stop in and say hello.

Welding questions, answered by experts

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

The difference between a lintel and a beam is what loads each is responsible for supporting. A lintel is a type of beam that is responsible only for supporting the load above an opening, such as a window or door, and transfers the weight to the side walls around an opening. A beam supports the slab and transfers the load to nearby columns, which then disperse the load to the ground.

Lally columns are named after their founder, John Lally, who owned a construction company in the 1800s. He invented the columns as a means of providing temporary support for beams and rafters in homes his company was renovating. The original Lally columns were also made of steel, although the inventory used a thicker gauge metal, which provided additional support for larger projects and long-term structural solutions.

Beams made out of traditional lumber can often only span 8 to 12 feet without requiring vertical supports, so if you want a wider opening to create a more open floor plan, you might need an LVL beam. LVL beams can span up to around 30 feet without the need for load-bearing walls or vertical supports underneath, making them a better option for keeping your home as open and airy as possible.

Some states require welders to be licensed and certified, while others don’t. However, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed welder, regardless of requirements in your area, especially if you need welding for structural components of your home or gas lines. Licensed welders have gone through training and testing to prove their skills, so they’re less likely to make a mistake that could be detrimental to your home. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to determine whether your potential hire has a welding license.
