Mudzilla was created in 1995 to give homeowners an alternative to the dusty, dirty mess of new drywall and plaster repair.\nI was an apprentice to an original plaster artist who worked on homes in the 1940's, I took what he taught me and applied it to new drywall and the result was that I could finish it faster and cleaner.

"Buck and his crew did an exemplary job. He worked with us for over a week getting the particulars of the project worked out. The job was a challenge, requiring some creativity due to a slight elevation change on our lot and even a sizable drainage ditch the fence had to cross. We opted for a custom made six foot picket wood design. Buck and crew came up with a great plan and the fence looks terrific. The installation was completed in a reasonable time frame, even with a couple of weather delays."

"Express brought a crew of 6 that built and installed our screen room in two days. The 6 local contractors that I contacted to build a wooden structure either were unresponsive or turned down the project outright. Of the three metal frame contractors Express was the most competitive. The structure is strong and attractive. When a small leak developed they were prompt in the response and repair. I would highly recommend this company."

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. 

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.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.
