"Bryce Dineen and his crew from BD Fence Solutions definitely get 5 stars from us. Bryce immediately returned my phone call and came the next day to look at what we needed and discuss the job. His crew removed and replaced 320' wooden horse fence , saved and neatly stacked the old wood for us. They them removed and replaced 3 decks that had been destroyed by snow and ice. This team was professional and friendly the entire time that they were here, checking with us along the way to be sure they were doing what we wanted and being very willing to make any changes or additions that we wanted. Their work was beautiful, their clean up meticulous. We will most definitely use them again for any future projects and highly recommend them"

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"This was a very involved plaster repair and remediation job, in a very old house. Grady is the only person (or company) who was willing to take on the job and drive all the way from Pennsylvania to our home in Northern Virginia. There are very few people who do this kind of work anymore (we really searched) and he is an expert in his field. We needed to work around his schedule, because he is in demand in the tri-state area, so it took awhile to schedule the work to begin... but it was worth it."

"I had contacted Mike at Premier Medical Equipment to install a ramp for my husband who was to be released from the hospital. I had paid the down payment and before it could be installed, my husband died. I contacted Mike and he quickly returned my money. He was very gracious about doing this. Initially when I contacted him for information about the ramp, options and time frame for installation, he was very professional and helpful. He spent time answering questions and quickly sent me a quote. He contacted me to let me know when it had been scheduled for installation. I certainly would recommend this service. Although I did not ever have the ramp installed, I gave 5â s for quality of work (customer service) and value for my money since he quickly returned my deposit."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

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.
