Customers say: True professional

"These guys are fabulous! If I could give them 10 stars I would. They are professional, reasonably priced for the wok price they do, and they do great work. I have used them on many projects large and small for over 5 years. They have done both interior and exterior work, from painting to landscaping, to construction, to home repair. They have ALWAYS completed the work on time and with exceptional quality."

"The repair went well and looks good. I had to provide all of the materials and do all of the preparation. But for the cost, it was fair. And the carpenter cleaned up afterwards and left everything stacked nicely. The experience was a little less personal than I typically like.

"The porch was over done. Adam made sure it would never move. He was absolutely awesome to work with. He adjusted as needed, and made sure everything was perfect. We couldn’t be happier! And every day the crew cleaned up so the dogs didn’t have “chew toys” that were bad for them! He absolutely builds from the heart!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

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. 

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.
