"I hired Joe Rodriguez and team to rebuild my deck. Shortly after submitting a request on Home Advisor in April, Joe contacted me and visited my home a few days later. It only took two days to provide a quote and it was very reasonable. Joe was very knowledgeable about my village's regulations. Joe initially told me that he would be able to start my project in Jun due to other commitments. After I agreed to the price, Joe called and say that he had an opening for the next week due to a delay on another project. We agreed to proceed with the work. He managed my expectations well. He came on a Thursday to demo my old planks and railings. The team honored their commitment and returned the following Wednesday to start the build. The project was completed the next day! Joe are a pleasure to work with and I would gladly hire his company for other construction projects."

"Mario responded quickly to my request. He provided a quote that met my budget. I made a deposit and he came out in two days to complete my job. I had a back porch support post that was rotting away, putting my porch at risk of collapse. The repair involved replacing the rotten post and modifying a custom decorative lattice on one side. This was a relatively small job and I was unsure that I could get an experienced contractor to take it on. They did the work quickly, efficiently and it all looks good. They arrived on time; cleaned up the job site; demonstrated a professional demeanor; and completed everything to my satisfaction. I will call Vax Construction when I'm ready to do a bigger improvement project."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

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.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.

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.
