Customers say: Terrific value

"These guys are awesome. Ervin came out and gave an estimate on 4/18 and we agreed on a price. On 4/24 he showed up with a full crew and had my entire roof replaced in under 5 hours. My neighbors across the street are going on week 2 of their roofing project, they should have hired Ervin. I would absolutely recommend this company to anyone looking for honest work at a great price. One of the best professionals I've ever dealt with."

"The Under Pressure team were great! I got a very reasonable quote quickly for power washing my wood fence and deck. The job was scheduled promptly. Coby did the work. He was polite, professional and very thorough. The fence and deck look fantastic now. I couldn’t be happier."

Hello, Bryar from Hammond Home Improvement. I’m 23 years old and I’ve been in the construction/remodeling business for 5 years now. I’ve practically done a little bit of everything when it comes to remodels but I specialize in building decks, replacing doors and windows, and bathroom remodels. I have spent the last 3 years mainly working around lake houses in the area but I’m willing to travel for work. I would be more than happy to help in any way shape or form! No job to big, No job to small.

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. 

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. 

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet.
