"I had two wicker aluminum frame rocking chairs that I loved and the seats had rotted through. Cliff found a way to repair them so I could continue using the chairs and not buy new ones. He's very personable, nice, knowledgeable and professional and I appreciate he was willing to find a way to make it work even though my project was small! We definitely plan to call M&M Construction when we are ready for our large home projects!"

"Mr. Luis, did an amazing job with this project. He communicated effectively, and the door looks brand new. It took me about 90 days since the day I mistakenly broke the top part of the storm door screen in area to find someone but it was worth the wait. I recommend his services. He is also an electrician by trade and has done apartment and home maintenance for 5 years and can do carpentry as well. Out of everyone the site recommended he was the most polite and helpful person when communicating about my project. Again thank you Mr. Luis and we will be sharing our experience with you on other platforms as well."

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.

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.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

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.
