"Im super pleased with the work this company did and I will absolutely hire them again for future projects! The big boss Dale is extremely kind and knowledgeable and I felt safe and at ease with him taking care of the repairs my home desperately needed. His crew was very very respectful to me while they were in my home and were happy to work around me and let me talk their ears off while they tried to work :) Additionally the price I paid for said repairs was very fair and reasonable; i dont feel like I was overcharged or taken advantage of. Overall this was a great experience and am happy to recommend these guys to anyone who needs work done around the house. I had them replace drywall and several doors and trim and paint and I think they can do pretty much anything!"

"Very personable and professional. Prompt each and every day of the project. Very satisfied with their work. They made changes that we requested during the middle of a project with complete satisfaction, quality, and efficiency. Most of all, the work was most affordable and fit our budget. These guys also presented themselves as men of integrity and honesty when figuring the cost of our project estimates as well as the final costs. Would highly recommend them for any size home project or remodel."

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.

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.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.
