"Mr Hughart was on time, completely prepared, and work with breaks until the project was complete. His bid was far less and more reasonable. His work was professional of the highest quality. I was very pleased with the treated wood used an his explanation of how to maintain the surface. To summarize, the project exceeded my expectations and would recommend Mr Hughart for household projects. I definitely will be using his expertise in future projects. Thank you for allowing me to comment on the high quality workmanship of Mr Hughart. G Tuttle"

"The deck railing on my 29 year old pool was badly in need of repair or replacement. Dean listened to my concerns and was able to immediately make a plan to replace the railing and to build a new set of steps and a hand railing. He and his crew completed the project in one day and displayed what I look for in a contractor, which is promptness, politeness, and professionalism. They were very easy to work with, and the finished project exceeded my expectations. Very detailed and meticulous workmanship."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

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.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

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. 

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.
