"Alex was extremely professional in building my deck. He was able to come up with creative and effective solutions for the deck that will last for years. When receiving estimates for the deck, I got more than what I paid for as his craftsmanship was excellent."

"I cannot say enough good things about Bob. He went above and beyond in every aspect of the job and was a true stand-up guy from start to finish. He worked in a very timely and professional manner, communicated everything clearly, and genuinely cared about making sure the project turned out right. The closet system I ordered from Amazon actually came with a piece that was manufactured incorrectly. Instead of giving up or leaving the job unfinished, he let us know immediately and then did everything he could to make it work. Thanks to his effort, problem-solving, and attention to detail, the end result turned out amazing. I honestly couldn?t be happier with how everything came together. I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, hardworking, and committed to doing quality work."

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. 

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

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.

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.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.
