"I called, and he took the time out of a Saturday to install the dishwasher. Rodney has a clean cut and professional appearance. Fantastic representative for his company. Great communication skills. He doesnt rely on an answering machine to do his business. He arrived on time. He moved the dishwasher up from the basement, to the kitchen. He was very polite and respectful in all communication. He cleaned up after himself and hauled all scraps and packaging. I will definitely have him out again for future projects. I recommend that you the reader, give serious consideration to Rodney Cooper for your next project. I dont think that you will be disappointed with his work. Recommended. A+++."

"Working with Vernon was so easy. He communicated the progress on my unit through the project. He shared pictures along the way as well. He even came up with a simple solution to a small issue we had with our walls not being completely straight and out floors not being entirely level back when the home was built 20 years ago. He made the unit completely level and came up with a solution to hide how he made it level. The unit is beautiful and I would recommend Vernon to anyone looking to have quality woodworking done at their house."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

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.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.
