"Samuel and Colleen from Collective Enterprise, LLC are the best. They made my anxiety in hiring them go away, since I was unfamiliar with their company. Colleen made sure my project scheduling would accommodate the vendor materials delivery date before the installation started. Samuel arrived each day on time and cleaned the area before leaving. Samuel professionally assembled and installed 2 walk-in, all-wood closet systems. One system was installed off the floor, and the other, free-standing. He did an awesome job. I would not hesitate to recommend Collective Enterprise, LLC. We are so happy with the work done, we will definitely use Collective Enterprise, LLC again for our upcoming project."

"If you need something assembled you can't go wrong with this professional. I am very cautious about who I hire that has to come to my home for safety reasons. This gentleman was extremely polite, Professional, and quick and efficient. He gave the best estimate hands down, he responded to my request right away and my tables were assembled the very next day, he gave white glove service at an extremely reasonable price. I will not hesitate to use his services in the future."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

A contract should outline the scope of work, timelines, costs, payment schedule, and materials used for clarity and protection.

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.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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. 

Some states require carpenters to be licensed to perform forms of carpentry, such as framing. The license requires a certain amount of experience and to pass an examination. In states that don’t require carpenters to be licensed, they must be licensed as a contractor if they work independently rather than solely as a subcontractor under a licensed builder. Use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to find out whether a potential carpenter is licensed in your state.
