"Mike and his son did all the work themselves. Came out and gave a free estimate, priced the project, then got right to work once the job was accepted. They worked quickly, efficiently, and did an excellent job. They kept the workspace clean and cleaned up thoroughly upon completion. They punched a hole through the wall to install a new window. The drywall on the inside has a texture and had previously been redone horribly. Mike fixed it right up around the window to match the rest of the walls. On the outside he fabricated a boarder to make the aluminum siding match up with the window frame. Overall it was excellent work!"

"Mr Slaughter removed existing ceramic tiles from the kitchen and hallway and installed underlayment and LVP totalling 100+/- sf. It was a tedious process. He was very meticulous and communicated with us each step and sent pictures showing the progress. He did a phenomenal job and I would highly recommend him to handle any project in your home"

"I came in from out of town temporarily to renovate my childhood home and was nervous about being able to easily find a dependable, honest renovator to do the work. I lucked out because I found Charlie through an online recommendation and he did an excellent job. He worked with me to suggest options so that I could stay within my budget and he did not take on another job during mine knowing I had severe time constraints. He was thorough in his work, testing and retesting plumbing repairs all over the house, modifying kitchen cabinets to fit newer appliances, searching out oddball hinges that I needed for older style kitchen cabinet doors, rebuilding a shower in a tight space and taking great care to finish each project with quality work. Despite my time limitations, he did not rush nor do shoddy work his perfectionism worked in my favor. He was respectful of me and the property and always cleaned up the days workspace. I highly recommend him and will call on him again for future work."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

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. 

The boards between floor joists are called bridging or blocking boards. These are the shortest pieces of wood in the flooring system—with beams being the longest and joists sitting somewhere in the middle—and they serve to reinforce the joists and help provide even support to the flooring above. Bridging specifically helps cut down on uneven and creaking floors in your living area.

While carpenters and woodworkers perform similar tasks, their focus differs. A carpenter is typically responsible for the structural woodwork involved in construction, such as framing, installing sheathing, hanging kitchen cabinets, and installing trusses. In contrast, a woodworker handles more intricate and custom projects, like building custom furniture, installing wainscoting, and creating detailed interior trim and moldings. Based on these definitions, many woodworkers can perform the tasks of a carpenter, but it's always best to discuss your specific project with a professional to ensure they have the necessary skills.

Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.
