"Mark and Josh, with help from Nick, restored my old 1917 garage. Most contractors I talked with seemed to have no idea what to do, but Mark figured it out. He was responsive and professions. It was a pleasure to work with him. I highly recommend Moonlight Renovations, and I will be hiring them again. One of their characteristics that I valued the most was the responsiveness. Whenever I left a message, they got back to me right away. I always knew what was going on and what the schedule was. They went far beyond my expectations. They did little things, like cleaning out their equipment so I could use the garage on the weekends. I didn't expect that and didn't ask for it, but they did it without my saying anything. I can't go on enough about how happy I am with the results of this project. I'm attaching before and after photographs."

"Dan Johnson and his crew were an incredible blessing during a challenging time for my family. My mother was battling AML, and Dan generously volunteered his time to make sure our home was ready for her return. He and his team went above and beyond, installing all the interior doors, trimming out each room with precision, laying laminate flooring throughout the house, and even adding a beautiful chair rail in the main living area. Their attention to detail and dedication to quality work truly transformed the space. It was so beautiful when mom made it home. We are so grateful for Dan’s kindness, generosity, and exceptional work. Highly recommend!"

"Our project was finished faster than we expected and were given the opportunity to live in it for a little bit, notify any issues, and then invite them back in to repair anything that we noticed. The job site was isolated in order to keep debris to a minimum and everything was cleaned and stacked before leaving each day. David is meticulous in his work and offered several suggestions on how to work around the little issues that always seem to come up. Overall, we're very happy with the new kitchen and would contact David for remodeling needs in the future. We're saving up for a bathroom remodel next, David will be our first call."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

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.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
