"RAP did a wonderful job power washing my house and paver patio. I live on a busy road and the house builds up a lot of dirt; the back of the house faces north and gets a lot of green buildup on the siding. After Rich and his crew powerwashed, everything is clean, bright and beautiful. The pavers came out great, too, they look like new! Easy to work with and a really good price."

"We recently hired Joseph & Sons Construction for two separate projects. The first project was the installation of handrails on our front and rear steps. The second project was the building of a cement base for our outdoor shed to be moved. The work was completed in a very professional and expeditious manner. The entire crew should be complimented on a job well done. I would not hesitate to utilize Joseph & Sons Construction for any future home improvement project. Thank you Joseph & Sons."

"In 2024 our self-managed their faced our largest project to date on our 1965 building. The balcony membranes and stucco needed to be replaced and repaired. We did our due diligence and had companies give us proposals and estimates. We decided on they're after inspecting other buildings, researching their methods and comparing prices. We liked that they use their own teams rather than sub-contracting the work."

"I hired Uprise to repair my pavers on the driveway and I was pleased with the work, professionalism and honesty. I ended up using them for my 20x40 deck replacement and it was just as great as the first experience. We used trex boards, they were open to ideas and listened to our suggestions and they explained everything in detail."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

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.
