"Steve and Justin were very professional and did quality work. They had a challenge, since the one area was on a slope along the side of the church building that needed repaired. They had to build a support plank to do the work. A few days earlier they needed a bucket lift to do another area. They removed all debris and did an excellent job, overall. Would highly recommend."

"DJ was professional and polite from start to finish. The morning I was looking for a job to be done he came and looked at it and gave me a quote. He gave me the time frame he could have the job done and he stuck to his word. His work is meticulous. He cleaned everything up when he was done and left nothing behind. I have already given his number out to a couple people. It's very hard to find somebody as hard working and professional as this person. He gets five stars all the way around. I needed boards replaced on my deck."

"David Savon responded immediately to my request for a quote and came to our house the next day. Quickly determined the solution for each situation and charged a fair price for his work (over $330 less than a quote I received the day before from another company). Based on this experience, I scheduled David to return in two weeks to handle two other projects after, again, receiving fair quotes. Professional, knowledgeable, and personable. Will recommend to others and will be the first company I contact in the future for other houesehold projects/repairs."

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. 

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project.
