"ET construction worked on our cottage this summer. ET replaced our old ceilings with knotty pine panels and upgraded our lights to ceiling fans. Also added more outlets. Also replaced outside siding. They were great to work with and efficient. I would recommend them. It’s hard to find someone that you can trust."

"Felipe and his workers were AMAZING in finishing my basement. I had a botch job from a previous contractor and failed inspection. Felipe and his workers came to the rescue, way above my expectations. They are extremely detail oriented. They are big on customer service. I rarely write any positive reviews. Moving forward myself and all my referrals would be using this company."

Unfinished Carpentry 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. 

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

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.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.
