"Outstanding service from start to finish. Montana is great to work with—we are going to have Big Sky add a pergola this fall. Finished the job sooner than promised, and we couldn’t be happier with how our deck turned out. Start to finish, they were professional, and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough."

"I hired them to remodel my kitchen, two bathrooms, paint and install new flooring and staircase.They did a good job. I was not happy with the first set of cabinets and James set up a consultation with the cabinet maker so we could come to a fair agreement. James is a really good communicator, he would call or text at the end of the day to let me know what they did and then to tell me what they were doing the next day and at what time they would arrive."

"Michael did an excellent job installing grab bars, showerhead and shower seat. He consulted with us at every step to make sure everything worked for our needs, looked great, and was completely safe for our use. The job was done the right way the first time. He is also very personable, chatting with us and still working very quickly. We highly recommend his work. It's beautiful!"

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"My table is 95% better. I would have liked the table top to be more finished. And one of the legs is still partially split away. Other than that I would have given them all 5 stars."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.

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.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.
