"I had never used Angi before but once I posted my need, Rob responded quickly. We set a time to meet and he met me at the appointed time. He described what he would do, gave me a time frame to complete the work, and quoted a fair price. The crew came, on the day and time specified. They were knowledgeable and easy to work with. I had many discussions with the crew and they expressed a desire to please me as a customer. They finished and cleaned up and the work is exceptional."

"I just moved a week ago and the movers I hired damaged my bed frame significantly. I found Tony through Angi. He showed up on time and fixed my bed frame in under an hour. Exceptional work....very professional and friendly. I would definitely use his services again and would recommend him to friends or strangers."

"David and his team have been great to work with. They were fast and did quality work. David picks up his phone and calls you back and gives great customer service. We originally were just going to hire them for framing but have now signed them up to do a whole lot more work to finish our basement. I can’t recommend him enough."

"Great company! We had a bathroom remodel done to our master bathroom. Mack and his crew were phenomenal with the remodel. Great quality carpentry work along with great tile work. We converted our garden tub and shower to a walk in shower. They pay great attention to detail also. The price we were quoted was what we paid. Again, great company. We will definitely be using them in the future. Contact them directly +1 (706) 715-0439 - Juri"

"ADA Construction built the deck of my house and it was super beautiful, Erin explained several things to me so that my deck would look better and they expanded it 4 more feet leaving me with a 24x12 deck and at a very good price, they are excellent workers, they left everything clean and tidy and my deck was super beautiful, I recommend them 100% and of course I will call them for more jobs."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

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.

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

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.
