"Joel is great to work with, forthright, asks questions, listens, and offers advice. We had our manufactured home remodeled. When the job started going sideways with our initial contractor, I started calling around for someone to replace that company. Joel gave us a great bid and had references. He built us a beautiful porch, installed our kitchen cabinets, laid the flooring throughout the house. He referred a great guy to help finish the bathroom tiling, and another to do the painting. There are always delays with any project, but he didn't disappear for days or weeks at a time, he was committed to our project, and would tell us his schedule if he had to be somewhere else. There was constant communication, and if we showed up at the house, he was working. Would highly recommend."

"We can say that Moriah Remodeling & Construction does get any remodeling project done! Eran and his excellent & professional team worked so efficiently while the painters were able to do a remarkable paint work. They proved to us that they are way much more than other home improvement company much better than what anyone hopes & wish to have. They always were on time, very detailed oriented, accurate & fair estimated, while providing helpful solutions. Eran, on the other hand, did keep his promises and we love it. Eran & the team were friendly, helpful and as minimally noisy as they could. We highly recommend them for any remodeling project such as ours (kitchen and bathrooms remodeling)."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Floor joists provide support and stability to the flooring installed above them, whether it be hardwood, tile, or carpet. They’re essentially horizontal beams that hold up the subfloor and everything that lies on top of it. Floor joists also help evenly distribute weight across their structure so that it’s shared between walls, beams, and your foundation.

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.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.

Before hiring a carpenter, the most important thing is to make sure they are properly qualified and insured for the job. It’s more than reasonable to ask your prospective carpenter for customer references, as well as about their licensing and insurance. You should also consider choosing a carpenter that specializes in your specific project area to ensure high-quality results. 

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.
