Q: Do joists sit on beams?

• <div><p>Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don&rsquo;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&rsquo;ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.</p></div>

Q: Do installations include corner bracing?

• <div><p>Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if I missed the stud?

• <div><p>There are a few options if you miss a stud. You can simply patch the hole with spackle, sand it down, repaint it, and then find the stud&mdash;essentially starting over. If you don&rsquo;t want to do that, you can insert one of the more robust drywall anchor options and hang your item on that, but that will only work if the drywall is in excellent condition and the anchor is rated for the weight of the item you&rsquo;re hanging on it. You may be able to cover the hole with the object itself once it&rsquo;s mounted, but it&rsquo;s still recommended to at least fill the hole to protect insulation and prevent vermin from entering. </p></div>

Q: What is the best angle for bracing?

• <div><p>A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate&rsquo;s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate&rsquo;s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if a support beam needs replacing?

• <div><p>The best way to know if your beams still provide adequate support is to consult a structural engineer. Structural beams can crack and even sag over time but may still be structurally sound. Keep an eye out for signs of issues in your home, such as sagging floors or ceilings, major cracks in your ceiling and walls, or signs of water damage around a weight-bearing wall.</p></div>

Tim Myers did a fantastic job he had to do alot more to the front door opening to make the screen door fit right. And I'm so glad he did it look great! Tim Myers is a carpenter that takes pride in his work and it shows.

They did an excellent job! If anything, this project was overbuilt. This is the 3rd project that the Shirley brothers have done for me and they do excellent work. I had to wait in line to get them for this last project, but it was definitely worth it.

The project went very well, and we are very pleased with the final product. A large master bathroom and office were added on to the master bedroom. The current master bath was flipped around, so there was a second bathroom for the children. Kitchen cabinets were repainted in the process as well....

I do believe his hourly or by the job rate is expensive. Unfortunately, carpenters with ability are almost nonexistent in this area today. His work is excellent. I had looked for a qualified person for three years. But I must say in this area it is by word of mouth that service people are...
