"Stop perusing contractors and just contact Adam immediately – he’s the one you want to build your fence or deck. We hired Adam to construct a privacy fence, and we’re absolutely thrilled with the final result. Adam was personable and easy going yet professional, and his crew was friendly and polite. He produced top-notch work, and he did so for the price he’d originally quoted -- there were no “gotcha” price increases that are unfortunately common among contractors. Most impressively, Adam and his crew finished the work on time, despite poor weather and issues with a supplier. He also took the challenges our slightly strange property presented in stride. We cannot recommend Adam Free Multi-Services enough, and we’ve already had initial discussions with him about other projects."

"Brothers Contracting and Landscaping is FABULOUS to work with! They tore out our old, unsafe deck and replaced it with one twice the size and much, much sturdier. The also replaced our worn out front porch and shed doors and built completely new doors, as well as remodeling our damaged floor in our master bathroom and installing new fabulous flooring. They accomplished all this in about 3 1/2 weeks! On time, on budget, and with EXCELLENT workmanship. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BROTHERS!"

"Daniel is very professional. He is a skilled carpenter and is eager to make his clients happy. I've had Daniel build a complicated deck, a patio, smoker deck, clean gutters, repair gutters, move plants, and more. I have recommended him to others and recommend him to you. Remember: don't assume anyone can read your mind and discern your vision or wants unless you thoroughly explain that to them."

"Happy Handyman LLC in my opinion the best contracting company I have ever used. They installed a roof on an existing out of square building and did a magnificent job. Dealing with Tracy, the owner, was an absolute pleasure. Her crew was very knowledgeable, courteous, professional and respectful. I will definitely hire then again and am informing my friends of there excellent work. I recommend them to everyone!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

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.
