"Edward did an excellent job on the framing install. He was efficient, professional, and completed the work quickly without any delays. He stayed within my price range, communicated clearly throughout the process, and delivered high-quality results. Everything was done right and done fast. I would absolutely recommend Edward to anyone needing framing work."

"Was looking for blinds but wasn’t sure what to get. Kurt went over his selection, he is very professional and he helped me chose without the salesman speech. Really appreciate that. My blinds were delivered and installed in just few days. The installation was done in one hour, very professional and extremely clean. I highly recommend Kurt if you’re looking for blinds. Giving Kurt 5 stars with no hesitation. I love my blinds, Thank you, Kurt!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

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. 

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.
