"We needed our composite deck repaired (it was getting dangerous to walk on), and this company made the deck secure and safe again. They were very professional, efficient, and reliable. We plan on using this company for future home updates and repairs."

"When they arrived to give the estimate they were very professional and personable. During the estimate we never felt pressure for them to do more, I decided what I wanted then an estimate was provided. The day the came to do the work again very professional and polite. We missed a few things we said we would complete in advance, but they did it without questioning. We did a complete review of the work completed and cleanup which was excellent. I have a few more projects to have done and I will be calling them multiple times."

"Great company! Hunter came in and looked at the project we needed done and gave an estimate in 15 minutes! He then sat us down with a bunch of photos of previous work he and his crew completed and we were sold! Offered large discounts compared to other contractors we got estimates from. His crew and him did our entire master bathroom in a week start to finish! It turned out better than I could have imagined! I highly recommend Indy aces construction! Thanks Hunter!"

"My home has been in need of siding being replaced in a few spots, a gutter being repaired and replaced and trim replaced on an outside door. Jerry and his son were timely, polite, and professional. They worked diligently and are reasonably priced. Came out on a weekend to do a quote and worked part of Labor Day. They are worthy of your business. They have the best work ethic I’ve experienced in Columbus since I’ve been here. I’m a hard person to please. Thank you, Jerry and son!"

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. 

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.
