"We hired Galto Residential Contracting to remove the popcorn ceiling from the entire first floor of our house, plus the second floor stairway and hallway areas. I was given a competitive bid (one of four bids received) and we scheduled to work. Andy Galto and his crew arrived as scheduled, and completed to project in a workman like fashion on a timely basis. Popcorn ceiling removal is inherently messy. The real issue is in prepping the ceiling drywall for a smooth finish. The contractor worked with us to get the smooth white finish we wanted, done to our satisfaction. The premises were cleaned up at the conclusion of the project, though we still had to deal with some of the drywall dust generated though the smooth sanding of the new ceiling. Overall, we are very pleased with the work done, and at a fair price."

"Superior Remodeling was easy to communicate with and worked with us to stay in budget since we were working on insurance money. The work was done quickly and quality work. The walls that needed repairs look fantastic, can't even tell where the texturing is and the carpet was installed so nicely I feel like my basement never flooded and I can go back to normal. Highly recommend their services!"

"We recently had our salon painted, and we couldn?t be happier with the entire experience! Everything was handled professionally from start to finish. The project was completed on time, there were no unexpected issues, and everything stayed within the budget we originally discussed. They were reliable, respectful of our space, detail-oriented, and made the whole process incredibly smooth. The finished result completely refreshed our salon and came out even better than we imagined. We absolutely love how everything turned out! We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality work, professionalism, and a team that truly delivers what they promise. We will definitely be using them again for future projects!"

"Ian ("IO") impressed me upon first meeting. I could tell he was bright and capable, and I was right -- my bathroom remodel is a work of art! He knows what he is doing and does it right. Plus, he is a nice person to have around--very courteous and gave me so much good advice. You can't go wrong with IO! Attaching before & after pics, but the photo of the remodel doesn't do it justice."

"They do everything! Everything as in interior and exterior of your home. Their work is fast, effective, and aesthetically pleasing! They work with you until the end. They don’t give up and give you as much time needed until you’re ready to start a new project. They work with your ideas and give great recommendations. They never rush you. They’re professional and organized! Highly recommend them 100%! For me personally, I can’t think of anyone else that would do a better job than them. If you don’t want or know how to work on your house, then definitely go to them. Or if you’re wanting a certain project done, than ask them. Their service is on point. When you need something done, they’ll be at your doorstep in a blink of an eye. They have a great crew! Their work is clean and perfected! I am truly loyal to them because of their great work and fast service! They wont leave you questioning their work. They deserve more clienteles and a big 5 star rating!"

Unfinished Carpentry 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.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.
