"Caleb is a fantastic general contractor. He did a major renovation of the entire first floor of our home including a vaulted ceiling (that everyone who enters comments on its beauty), a master suite with tub/shower/double sink, outside deck and full kitchen remodel. Throughout the project he communicated effectively and consistently with pictures and updates weekly. He is punctual, trustworthy, has a keen eye for detail and design and problem solves as unexpected issues arise. We love our newly remodeled home."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.
