"This is the second time we hired Brian Kopf. We had a variety of projects for him, including leveling a sliding glass door and installing a locking mechanism on it, repairing a bedroom door, adding trim to the lattice work surrounding our sun porch, but most important of all, mudding and painting our 23-year-old garage, which was banged up and heavily stained. Brian's work far exceeded our hopes for the project. The quality of the work, which was completed during a stretch of very hot and humid days, was precise and quite frankly, exceptional. The garage looks brand new. As I noted in our last review, Brian is the consummate professional. He is thoughtful and was respectful of our home. Brian is very personable and so easy to work with, especially given our lack of expertise. Needless to say, we have several other projects that we are hoping Brian can add to his schedule. We highly recommend Brian Kopf and if we could give him 10 stars, we would."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Some states require carpenters to be licensed to perform forms of carpentry, such as framing. The license requires a certain amount of experience and to pass an examination. In states that don’t require carpenters to be licensed, they must be licensed as a contractor if they work independently rather than solely as a subcontractor under a licensed builder. Use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to find out whether a potential carpenter is licensed in your state.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

The boards between floor joists are called bridging or blocking boards. These are the shortest pieces of wood in the flooring system—with beams being the longest and joists sitting somewhere in the middle—and they serve to reinforce the joists and help provide even support to the flooring above. Bridging specifically helps cut down on uneven and creaking floors in your living area.

General contractors use subcontractors to complete specific parts of a construction project. For example, a general contractor might have construction experience but need a subcontractor to install plumbing lines in a new home.
