I will be definitely hiring him for other projects in the future. I highly recommend this company to anybody who has projects that need to be done. Thanks."

"Nothing but great things to say about this company. They replaced a door frame that was destroyed by my cat and painted some other door frames and all I can say is that it came out perfect. Yuri and Andre did an amazing job, showed up right on time (early actually) and were incredibly friendly. Keep up the good work! Highly recommended!"

"Gary was super agile, answered quickly and showed up exactly on the scheduled time even letting me know in advance that he was on his way. He was able to help better align some doors of a dining room buffett that we assembled ourselves. I will definitely hire him again!"

"Kyle came by my condo, listened patiently to my needs and gave me a fair quote to do the work. He returned the next day and completed all the work skillfully and expeditiously. Kyle insisted we walk around the condo together to confirm all the work was done to my satisfaction. The work done included painting, caulking and handyman work. Kyle clearly showed pride in his work and concern for me, his customer. I will hire him again without hesitation and would recommend his company to anyone needing handyman services."

"Angelo was hired to repair/replace drywall damage from a re-piping. His skills and service are truly impeccable, went above and beyond to help me put my house back together and the job is so well done you can't tell the walls and ceiling were patched. Angelo is also a very honest and genuine person, I would hire him again and intend to have him do some work on my mother's house."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.
