"I couldn’t be happier with the incredible job Kristi and Advanced Quality Contracting did building my new deck. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, professional, and right on schedule, which is rare these days. Kristi took the time to really listen to what I wanted, offered thoughtful suggestions, and designed a deck that perfectly matched both my needs and my vision. The quality of his workmanship and materials is top-notch. Every detail looks clean, sturdy, and beautifully finished. It’s clear he takes great pride in his work. Kristi was a pleasure to work with, responsive, respectful, and committed to getting everything just right. He showed up when he said he would, kept the job site clean, and finished exactly on time. If you’re looking for a skilled, reliable contractor who delivers exceptional results, I highly recommend Kristi and Advanced Quality Contracting. My new deck is everything I hoped for and more!"

"The team from The Climate Chief were very professional from day one. They laid out plastic sheeting to protect our recently refinished hard wood floors. Cleaned up any messes from the blown in insulation. Covered the doorway by utilizing TEVEC house wrap and tape so we would not lose much heat when the hoses were running. At the end of each day one of the employees would pick up the plastic sheeting and sweep the floors and they would pick up all the tools so not to leave a cluttered workplace inside and outside. Billy Mike, and crew were very happy and cheerful while at work. Very knowledgeable about how to seal up any of the existing open areas. They removed all the existing fiberglass insulation before replacing with 18 inches of cellulose R60. A very professional job we are very pleased to say. We noticed a warmer difference in room temperatures right away! We would strongly recommend them to others!"

"I high recommend Etmond Komic! We originally hired him to repair our pool house wall and replace an attached, deteriorated shed. After removing the old structure, it became clear the wall had extensive, severe water damage and needed a complete rebuild. From start to finish, Etmond stood out: Detailed Proposal & Very Fair Pricing: While three other local companies gave vague, general quotes, Etmond provided a clear, thorough breakdown and a significantly better price. Thanks to his low overhead, his estimates were incredibly competitive without sacrificing quality. Innovative. Etmond suggested a fantastic new design for the attached shed that maximized head room and increased storage space while actually lowering the overall cost. The project presented several unforeseen issues—including an uneven asphalt base that required custom framing adjustments—and Etmond handled every single one with clever solutions. He is also proficient in electrical and plumbing. I highly recommend him!"

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

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.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

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.
