Customers say: Terrific value

"These guys are awesome. Ervin came out and gave an estimate on 4/18 and we agreed on a price. On 4/24 he showed up with a full crew and had my entire roof replaced in under 5 hours. My neighbors across the street are going on week 2 of their roofing project, they should have hired Ervin. I would absolutely recommend this company to anyone looking for honest work at a great price. One of the best professionals I've ever dealt with."

"Five-Star did an awesome job putting a new fence in for us. Very professional with great communication from start to finish. No yard damage and they did a fantastic job with clean up afterwards. Not a single dirt clump or rock in the yard after digging and setting all of the posts. I highly recommend Five-Star."

"I contracted MSW to install 155 ft of wood picket fence. Merv was very good about calling me back to schedule the work. The quality of the finished fence just really impressed me. I could not have done as good of a job, and I have installed many fences for myself. MSW gave me a fair price and did an excellent job. I hope to hire MSW again for some bigger projects. I would not hesitate to hire Merv (MSW) again. I am more than 100% satisfied."

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. 

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

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.
