"Zac pressure-washed my house, my front porch, and my sidewalk. He came to my house the week prior to the work to review what was needed; he then sent me a contract, explaining in detail what he recommended. On Monday, when Zac did the pressure-washing, it was brutally hot, in my opinion, yet he did the work, and it was superb! When I got home from my job, I circled my house twice, smiling with each step, as I reviewed the quality of his work. I certainly recommend Zac and Stick's."

"Carrie did not an exceptional job building four different decks for me on three different homes. He also fixed Decks that other contractors had poorly constructed at a very reasonable price. Stay away from this guy I need him to do other stuff for me. ? better yet I should give him a really negative review so nobody wants to work with him so he will work with me exclusively."

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.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

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.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.
