"I called just to have my 10 shutters painted. Alex answered and said he would be over in less than an hour to give me an estimate. He arrived within that time frame. He gave me a quote, which we agreed on, and said he could start immediately. He finished the job and then asked if I would like him to paint the front door. We agreed on a price, and he painted the door. The work was quick and professional. The front of my house now has a clean, fresh look to it. He cleaned up afterward and and he passed his business card to me. I would highly recommend Alex or A&S painting services to any home owner for painting jobs, large and small. A&S also does other work such as large painting jobs, power washing, carpentry, etc."

"went well. he delivered the table exactly as i expected with no surprises which sounds boring but means a lot in a world where I have become accustomed to there always being problems, pop-ups or changes for me to get what was promised initially. I appreciate his attention to detail and would use him again. He is worth it."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.
