"I desperately needed a basement window replaced, it was broken and the frame was falling out. J&Ms guys showed up ready to work and had a new window in a few hour installed. They also asked me how I wanted this or that done, which I appreciated greatly. We are very happy with the new windows and will likely have them back for future projects."

"I love it! Framing and hanging sliding doors that separated kitchen from living room. This is a project that I have wanted to do for a long time and finally got it completed. I own a manufactured home (or as it is called now a mobile home). These homes usually have unique openings and require customized or special orders. John was extremely helpful and brought my vision of what I wanted into reality. He also provided some suggestions which proved to be extremely beneficial. He was quick and efficient with his work. John framed the space from floor to ceiling. John did framing, molding and trim, dry wall (in the space above the doors on both sides), sanded and painted. I will definitely use him in the future and highly recommend this service."

"I asked them to remodel a 150 year old farmhouse for me so I could stay in my home and able to live comfortably with everything on the main floor as I am 88. They have done a beautiful job. They are a pleasure & joy to have around. When theyâ re here. His young man is an amazing painter and carpenter. They have gone out of their way to make sure I was comfortable & not put out. Whenever they left the house was clean. I am going to hire them again and recommend them to my friends. I didnâ t know them before but now I consider them to be my friends"

"They created a new patio door screen for my new rental unit. From the first call to get a quote and then hiring them to do the job, I was so impressed with the excellent customer service and professionalism. They came to do the proper measurements and kept me informed of the time frame before installing was happening. My new screen door is perfect and I am so happy with the product and I tell everyone about this company and excellent customer service I received. Thank you much from a very satisfied customer."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

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.
