The work Harris personally conducted included: custom cabinetry fabrication & installation, window installation, interior door installation, and other custom carpentry. Harris demonstrated a high level of integrity, attention to detail, proactive communication, and craftsmanship. We highly recommend him!"

"Andrew and his team were extremely proficient and skilled in their work. Always punctual and professional. I was so impressed with their work, I rehired them to fix issues left behind by another after seeing the high quality of work they did. The difference was clear and obvious even to a novice like me. I will need more work done in the future and I would not even consider another vendor or company. I will use them again and again and have already recommended them to any family and friends that would be in need of their services. 5 stars without hesitation."

Woodworking 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.

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.

Some states require carpenters to be licensed to perform forms of carpentry, such as framing. The license requires a certain amount of experience and to pass an examination. In states that don’t require carpenters to be licensed, they must be licensed as a contractor if they work independently rather than solely as a subcontractor under a licensed builder. Use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to find out whether a potential carpenter is licensed in your state.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.
