"JD Construction was great for my bathroom and kitchen update. They did extensive work including replacing the subfloor and rotted joists in the bathroom. They did the floor installation in bathroom and large kitchen, put up new drywall, stained and installed cabinets, and installed water fixtures. Jeff and Derek are responsive, easy to get in touch with, very professional and polite, they are a great, fast-working team that I would hire again for future projects."

"I need to thank once again, Gary co-owner of Midcity Handyman & Remodeling, https://www.midcityhr.com My electric needed upgrading as I was having lights dim as my o2 concentrator or ac unit used power. I couldn't run small ac unit in bedroom, living area one together at all, add in the airfryer and something needed turning off, obviously not the o2 unit and the heat was suffocating so air fryer didn't get used, lots of sandwiches. He came out and updated my breaker box with 2, 30 amp breakers and replaced, updated 9 outlets with 20 amp GFI ones. If I wanted to I can now run, both ac units, a dual circulating fan, freezer, airfryer, microwave, lights and TV all at the same time without losing power (throwing a breaker). 😍 thanks Gary you rock. They are very busy and have many repeat customers so call now to get in-line for your next remodel/upgrade or repair."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

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.
