"Great work the painters arrived on time, moved furniture and prepared room for painting. This room has cathedral ceilings and the accent wall we decided to add came out amazing. When the room was finished everything was cleaned up they even checked the room to make sure there were no drips then cleaned the floors before moving the furniture back in place. The room came out beautifully and I forgot to mention the previous owners had not painted in over 15 years but now the house looks great."

"I hired Alex and his team to remove my popcorn ceiling and apply new texture, and he did such an amazing job that I had him come back to texture my living room as well. Both times he was professional, on time, and worked quickly without cutting corners. The quality of the finish is excellent — everything looks clean and smooth. I highly recommend him for any drywall or ceiling work! 10/10"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Many contractors prefer checks because they’re easy to track and have no associated fees. However, many also accept credit cards (though they might add a fee to cover their processing costs).

Many people, including professionals in the field, use baluster and spindle interchangeably to describe the vertical components of a railing (or technically, a balustrade). However, there are subtle or distinct differences, depending on who you ask. The most common interpretation is that spindles are thin or delicate versions of balusters.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

If you don’t have a power saw with a blade where you can adjust the angle, you could use a miter box and hand saw to make the cuts. The miter box contains wide slots to support the piece of baseboard and other narrow slots to accommodate the blade of the hand saw. However, it’s tough to make non-standard cuts beyond 30 or 45 degrees when using a miter box.
