"Crown Home Improvement did a great job. Very professional and top-notch communication. They were on the job site within a week. I had my deck repaired and painted, fascia replaced and painted on the side of the house, repair and cleaning of gutters, painting the trim on three windows, and they repaired, replaced trim and painted some decorative shutters. 10/10 work. I would recommend them to family and friends. I will probably hire them again in the future."

"Awesome! He practically knows how to do anything!! I had him doing my husband’s to do list and he got about half of it done in one day. From there I kept adding to the list once I saw how good he was. My only concern I had/have is that he works by the hour instead of quoting a price for the job. I was pleased at how well he worked and the length of time it took to get the job done. He even shops for any parts you may need but be prepared to pay for that time since it is time he could be on a job. He worked on electrical and plumbing jobs and carpentry and even things like hanging TV’s on the wall! I definitely would recommend him!!"

"Simply outstanding!!! Every step in the process was timely and completed as promised. Every previous carpenter had recommended replacing the entrance door assembly, which would have cost three or more times the price to fix the problem. COMPLETED ON TIME AND BUDGET AS AGREED UPON!!! Canâ t say enough about my SATISFACTION!! SUPER â ¼ï¸ â ¼ï¸ â ¼ï¸"

"After we saw the job he did on our driveway we hired him to wash our house as well. We were very picky about the house but he listened to our concerns and performed the job to our exact specifications. We asked him to use a product with no bleach, and to use a soft brush instead of a high speed power washer. The house looks great."

"I spoke to William Wells. I honestly can say he is such a respectful and honest man. I had multiple companies come out and give me estimates but when I got ahold of Louisiana State Construction William put me at ease and came out and gave me a estimate on my roof which is a metal roof and he went through everything with me and just by the way he was so respectful and honest I had to go with him the price was just great as well! Thank you William"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

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. 

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.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.
