"Prior to contacting Midwest Spray Coating, the area that I live in experienced record high rainfall.   I discovered a small leak in the crawl (a house that I was under contract to purchase)  so I contacted several contractors for estimates. This was a short sale so I didn't have the same remedies that would typically be available for a conventional sale.    The first two contractors weren't available for over a month due to the high volume of work that was caused by the heavy rain.  My third call was to Midwest Spray Coatings.  They were also very busy but when I explained that I was under contract to buy the house they made time to help me. Midwest Spray Coating supervisor Jason Kalinowski demonstrated to me that he was very knowledgeable.   I was prepared for the worst but he explained that it was a relatively minor leak that could be repaired using the two part injection method.  With his estimate in hand,  I was able to get an OK from the seller's attorney, the mortgage holder and my mortgage provider  to proceed with the work.   I called Jason and once again, although he had a full work schedule, he agreed to make time to help solve the problem.  When the work was completed,   Jason prepared a written statement detailing  the scope of work.  I presented the statement  to my mortgage provider who reviewed and accepted it.  We closed on the our house about 7 days after Jason fixed the leak.  This was a short sale and there was no flexibility with the bank that held the mortgage, so, I believe, without Jason's help we would not have been successful with this house purchase. Midwest Spray Coating's office manager Melissa was also very helpful as she arranged to have the statements that were presented to the mortgage provider sent to me on very short notice.  I also found Chuck, one of the company principals,  who I spoke to on the phone, to be very helpful and professional.   I wouldn't usually write such a long report but Jason, Melissa and Chuck  and Midwest Spray Coating deserve the recognition."

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.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet.
