"We had a first-rate experience with this renovation team. They truly helped us realize the vision of what we imagined, and beautiful results were delivered. A home project of this scale is daunting to say the least and if issues arose they were addressed and resolved. We are absolutely thrilled with how everything turned out and would hire them again."

"Dmitri and his crew came to our project mid stream and just owned it! He was able to take the reins of a partially completed project and finish everything with the highest quality. View the attached photos for the stone fireplace, entry wall and wood work. Top notch in communication and execution. Thank you Dmitri and AZR. We'll be hiring you for our next home improvement project."

"We hired them to redo our laundry room. Everything went smoothly until my oldest had her appendix rupture, they worked with us to make sure that not only did our project get done but that they worked around our schedule as well and waited for me to get home to approve the whole job before taking a check from my mom. We’ve hired them to do more stuff for us, they’re a really great group of people and it’s nice that they’re all family so they understood our situation."

"These guys are true professionals at their trade. After months of looking in the big box stores and contacting several cabinet makers, my wife and I found Ordonez Cabinets and Doors LLC. They explained everything that we needed to know and helped us feel at ease with the process. They were reasonable in price compared to the estimates that we had already received. They built the cabinets and installed them to perfection. We now have the kitchen that we dreamed about for years."

Woodworking 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.

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

Landscape timbers can last 10 to 20 years in the ground when installed correctly. Pressure-treated timbers will last longer than non-treated ones, as pressure treatment makes the wood more rot-resistant. Wood exposed to high moisture levels or extreme temperature and weather fluctuations may not last as long as wood in drier areas with more consistent weather.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

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.
