"They removed and installed new subfloor and joists. We were having our wood floors replaced when our floor company discovered that areas of our sub-floor and joists needed to be replaced due to an old leak that hadnâ  t been properly repaired. Before we could proceed with installing the new floor, we needed to get this resolved. Thanks to Angie. I happened to find the Load Bearing Beam Masters and gave them a call. The owner, Jordan Hulcy, came out and gave us a game plan and an estimate to fix the problem. To say that I was anxious is an understatement; did I make the right decision; did I choose the right companyâ ¦ the answer is a resounding yes and yes. They are amazing at what they do and as youâ  ll see, did a fantastic job! Thank you Jordan for putting me at ease and thanks to the crew for a job well done! The proof is in the pictures."

"These guys were great. They were very professional. They knew what they were doing with all the different tasks that the repair of my flood-damaged property required. Most importantly, they were prompt and unlike so many contractors in this area, they started right away and finished approximately when they said they would. Wonderful people to get to know."

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

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.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.
