"Our interaction was great. They went out of their way to accomplish our projects. Have and will continue to call upon Carpenter's Kids for handyman or other services. Have some plumbing work as our next project. We sought a Christian company to do our work and we were not or never have been disappointed."

"These guys went beyond call of duty helping with snow removal and de-icing walks. They cleaned up daily, were courtesy, never used foul language and always worn masks at our request. The job was interrupted due to ice and snow and the failure of stores to deliver product on time. Primarily they gave me a price or estimate and maintained that estimate. They are coming back tomorrow to give me estimates on two other projects. EXCELLENT"

"I couldn’t be happier with the work done by Firm Foundation Builders on our deck remodel! From the very beginning, their team was professional, communicative, and clearly experienced. They helped us refine our vision, offered great suggestions, and handled every detail with care and precision. The finished deck is absolutely stunning—beautiful craftsmanship, sturdy materials, and it was all completed on time and within budget. They kept the worksite clean, were respectful of our space, and made the entire process stress-free. If you're looking for reliable, high-quality work and a team that truly takes pride in what they do, I highly recommend FFB. We’ve already received tons of compliments, and we’re thrilled to be enjoying our new outdoor space!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

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.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

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.
