"First of all there is no category for stairs, which is what we had done. They took out the builders grade dilapidated boards and installed beautiful oak. I've not seen a level of craftsmanship or pride in workmanship as we got with Art's Finish Carpentry. The job came out better than I could have ever imagined. The crew was here, on time every day: Finished on time , every day. They completely finished in about 4 days. A complete switchback (u turn) style staircase, with two landings. They were so kind they even cut the carpet back in the hallway upstairs, installed oak nosing (to connect the balusters) and then made sure the carpet was perfectly reset in it's new position. This after we told them we were eventually replacing the carpet. They were just amazing. If you have hired anyone else, fire them. Call Art. If you are looking for someone -- I couldn't recommend anyone more highly than this company. I wish I could add pictures here; go check out my Google review for pictures."

"They are not the cheapest, but they are by far the most expensive. You get what you pay for. You would be crazy not to hire Tim, Nick and the team. Had framing issues which made my new home unlivable in the guest bedrooms. Tim and his team came through and took all of the anxiety away from my wife and I and fixed our framing in 2 days flat. Again, you would be crazy not to hire these guys. They are simply the best."

"Garrett, Nadia, and Roland delivered a stress free deck building experience. Garrett was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He guided us through color and design choices, kept the project on track, and made sure we were happy every step of the way. Nadia has clear communication with us and Roland ensured we were receiving top-notch craftsmanship, every detail was handled with care. Garrett and Roland were in contact with us frequently including in stopping by ensured the job ran smoothly and checked in with us at the end to make sure we were happy with the result. The result is a beautiful, sturdy deck we’ll enjoy for years. We couldn’t be happier with our deck. We’ve gotten so many compliments already. There’s no better gathering place, we have built memories that will last a lifetime with friends and family on our new deck!"

"Adam and his crew did an excellent job on building us a ramp from the front door to the driveway. About 25 feet long. They were all delayed a little because of the Michigan weather. Other than that, they were very professional and friendly. Great job."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

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.

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.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.
