"Curtis at Craftsman Interiors contacted me soon after putting my ceiling crack repair job on HomeAdvisor, and gave a very detailed response on his plan after I sent some photos. His quote was reasonable and competitive, and I was impressed with the number of excellent ratings, so we chose him for the work. Curtis and one associate cut out & replaced the damage securely on day 1 in a couple hours, including taping & mudding. On day 2 they returned to smooth over the dried patchwork & sprayed on the ceiling texture, in approx. 90 min. I want to be clear that they worked carefully and efficiently, not in any rush. The guys completely masked off and covered all surfaces prior to the work both days, and left the room totally clean at completion. Our repair now looks like nothing had ever happened, and we were completely pleased with the quality of work, being courteous, and working efficiently. I highly recommend Craftsman Interiors and would be glad to have Curtis do additional work for us as needed. He gets another 5-star rating from us !"

"Andy and his son just completed a project for us. They removed popcorn and painted the ceiling in a bathroom (part of which was 18' high) and painted that bathroom. The cost was less than other quotes we received. Since we were on a roll, we also had him refinish our front and back doors with stain and paint and install a grab bar. They were great to work with, Andy returns calls promptly and arrived when he said he'd be here. We're pleased with the job and would recommend them both."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
