"Perfect! Couldn't have asked for a better contractor! Respectful, Clean, as well as thorough throughout the whole process and made sure every detail was to our satisfaction! Shane is a great guy with an even better work ethic and provides quality work at reasonable prices that you just don't find often nowadays."

"This is the second time we have hired Junior and he continues to impress us. He is super responsive and works harder than any contractor we have hired. He has high standards and ensures that work is completed with a great attention to detail. He is so trustworthy and honest; we left him with keys to our home. He goes above and beyond and is an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish!"

"After reviewing suitable contractors on Angie's List, we received two quotes for the deck/screened porch project.  We felt we would have received high quality work from both contractors, but after meeting Shane and going over the project with him, we were impressed with his positive approach and the suggestions he had about the porch & deck.  Since the quote from Craftsman Direct was more within our budget we opted to go with them for this project.
We were very pleased with the work crew, Vince and his brother Keith.  These guys are great - very friendly, very dedicated to doing professional work, and fine craftsmen.  We really appreciated their communication with us throughout the entire project.  Whenever a decision was needed about an unexpected alteration, they contacted us and informed us about the options and gave us their recommendation.  We also liked their attention to detail, everything from the tile work (which looks amazing) to the lattice work (which is also great), screens, railings, painting, even the flower hanging post - which was a special request.  
Every day they came with a great attitude, and it appears that they really love what they do.  Vince and Keith were very conscientious about being sure that their tools, building materials, and scraps were cleaned up at the end of each day.  They certainly made us feel like they were glad to have us as customers.
As with any size-able project we had some delays. Some of the delays were related to getting different instructions from different building inspectors.  Other delays had to do with the fact that these guys are very busy - because they're good.
Overall, we are very satisfied and we would definitely hire these guys again - and already have for a siding repair project (that review will be up on Angie's List soon).  We felt that they really treated us very fair, they provided very high quality workmanship, and they were great to work with.
We are extremely happy with the completed project. This afternoon we had a glass of wine on the new deck and enjoyed the wonderful fall weather; and this evening we had dinner in the screened porch and watched the wildlife in the field and woods behind our house. We look forward to enjoying this space for many years to come.

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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. 

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.
