"We ended up not hiring this contractor. They seemed very attentive but when told we would be getting quotes from other contractors as well as seeing how it all came out compared to the insurance adjusters estimate, I received a text informing they wouldn't be proceeding with the quote. I guess they didn't want themselves pitted against other contractors in the area. Perhaps they are much higher and thats why they assumed we wouldn't hire them (although in the end, it was just them and one other contractor but they made the decision for us, I guess.) I am not sure what we did wrong but since I have never had to go through a homeowner's insurance claim before, I am not sure if it's cool to get several quotes or not. I just figured I'd look around for the best contractor with the best estimate. I can't tell you how their work would have been. Who knows, since they didn't like knowing we'd compare them."

"Stephen was very professional. They arrived on time every day, and always asked questions each step of the way to ensure we were happy with the outcome. When we didn't like the cabinets that were picked out for either side of the fireplace, Stephen custom built ones to our liking. We were very please with his services, would definitely hire him again."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

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 a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

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.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.
