"I cannot recommend Sullivan Tile and Home Improvement highly enough! We have used Sullivan Tile and Home Improvement for two separate projects at our house now, and their quality and professionalism are consistently outstanding. We worked directly with Phil, and he is truly amazing. From the moment we started, the entire experience was stress-free due to his great communication. He was always clear, timely, and professional, ensuring we were aligned every step of the way. Phil's attention to detail is remarkable. He approached the project with the precision of a true craftsman, ensuring every cut, layout, and grout line was perfect. The amazing quality of the final work exceeded all of our expectations—it is absolutely stunning. I have already recommended Phil and Sullivan Tile and Home Improvement to several friends who are planning renovations. If you are looking for top-tier, reliable, and detailed home improvement, look forward to working with Phil. Highly recommend Sullivan"

"Mike was incredibly kind and helpful getting things done to code on our budget. He did our porch, firewall and kitchen floor without a big crew or making a huge mess. Highly recommend for anyone who needs a fix up or a bigger projects and needs to work on a budget! Will happily call him for any other repairs needed going forward."

Carpentry 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.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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.

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.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.
