"I hired them to build me a bench set in my kitchen and paint it and it came out exactly how I wanted it. They were timely, flexible and reasonable and most importantly, friendly and easy to deal with I highly recommend."

"Chris built steps for my new storage shed. He came to do the job when he said he would and accomplished the task for a very reasonable, fair price. He cleaned the work area before he left. I will certainly call him again when I need his skills around my house and recommend him to others with no reservations. He did a very professional job that pleased me very much."

"Our popcorn ceiling in garage was split and falling down taking the garage door motors with it. These guys came in and removed the ceiling and garage motors and garage doors. So hardworking and prompt. We couldn’t ask for better service. Also had a ceiling fan replaced. We also have a very odd sized window that they will replace. There is nothing they can’t accomplish and it made for an excellent experience. Would definitely recommend using Steve Scott’s company for all your home repairs. I’ll try and post before and after photos. Again, you cannot go wrong going with Steve Scott’s company. We’re just so pleased. Deana Hervey, River North, Macon, GA [email protected]"

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. 

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
