"I hired CS construction to remodel my guest bathroom. Alex was very patient and helped walk me through the process. After coming up with a plan he completed the renovations quickly and the work looks amazing. As I continue to slowly remodel my house I will be sure to hire Alex and CS construction again."

"We replaced a tub/shower with a walk in shower. The job took about 2 weeks. I feel I really lucked out getting Jack Strong of Thomas Cole Construction as my contractor. Jack handled every aspect of the job and would check in nightly to inform us of the next step. The finished project is beautiful and I highly recommend this contractor and company."

"Highly recommend. We got water damage in our kitchen and Ricky helped us fix it. He was very responsive and helpful with any information we need. His crew were respectful and reliable. With only 2 people working, they were able to fix the water leak and finish our kitchen and bathroom remodel in less than 2 weeks. I am so thankful with Ricky and will be reaching out to them for any house improvement we have."

Unfinished 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 hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
