"GLD Construction is the best framing crew I’ve worked with. They’re fast, efficient, and the quality of their work is top notch. The crew stays organized, keeps the job moving, and their pricing is very cost effective for the level of craftsmanship they deliver. Highly recommend them if you want framing done right and on schedule."

"When my mom unexpectedly had to move out of her home into a smaller, one level condo, Josh with JMB Enterprises made sure to add absolutely everything we needed to make sure she was safe & the transaction went smoothly. He has been wonderful to work with. Knowledgeable, efficient, hard working? I can?t say enough good things. I will be utilizing his help at the new condo and my own house. 100% I am also recommending Josh to the neighbors inquiring if we have a handyman. I say we have an ?excellent? one!"

"We needed 20 mature bushes removed and then new weed cover and rocks put down in the beds where they came out. The bushes were very difficult to remove, eventually requiring a backhoe (?). They got them out and finished the job very professionally. Responded immediately to my request and came out to do the job when promised"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

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.

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.

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

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.
