"Outstanding guy… Professional, always on time and the work was beautiful. Painting, electrical, installation. Lucas did a lot of work in my home, left the place spotless and I couldn’t be more happier with the quality of the work. I’d hire this guy any day, I highly recommend him, you won’t be disappointed. Images to follow."

"Excellent service and high quality workmanship by Rick. He torn down my collapsed garage ceiling and replaced the drywall using screws tape mud to fill and 1/2 drywall. 5/8 if you request. Sanded and painted. What a difference! Easy to work with and his estimates are fair and highly competitive."

"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."

A well-versed country-raised handyman with a keen mind and a strong body. I'm a skilled carpenter, good at repairs, and experienced in furniture assembly.\n\nI learned carpentry, welding, and various other skills from my father, Louville "Bill" Kimball, one of the top skilled tradesmen in the state of Florida. With his passing a few years ago, I endeavor to carry on the legacy he left me and provide skilled service to the community

Carpentry questions, 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, 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. 

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

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
