"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."

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"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

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.

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. 

Hiring a woodworker can be expensive, depending on the job, but it’s very often well worth the investment. Woodworkers are able to provide custom pieces of furniture and handmade construction to present a finished product that is exactly to your specifications. If you have a specific vision for a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture or home feature, the cost of hiring a professional woodworker is worthwhile. Plus, you’ll often get a higher quality product than what you could buy in stores for a fraction of the price.

Rustic and modern farmhouse styles are currently the most popular. These include rustic and antique furniture, muted colors, clean lines, eclectic decor, and natural materials. Some other popular farmhouse styles include the following:

  • Coastal farmhouse: Creates a lighter, airier feel with soft colors and blue palettes, along with gold

  • Colonial farmhouse: Focuses on real antique furniture and decor

  • French farmhouse: Leans on French country architecture and design by including marble and lighter-colored metals, like zinc

  • Industrial farmhouse: Includes thick, chunky furniture and dark metals

  • Scandinavian farmhouse: Usually includes lighter wood colors and more refined furniture

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.
