"Curtis and his crew did fantastic work completing a major repair to my deck. After I requested an estimate through Angi, Curtis called within a couple of hours and arranged a time to assess the situation. He spent 30 to 40 minutes inspecting the deck and then provided an estimate within a couple of days for the first phase of the project, which needed to be completed right away to stabilize the deck against any possible damage to my home. Curtis communicated clearly throughout the project and came up with options that not only restored my deck, but improved it against future damage and wear. Curtis and his crew completed my project with impressive care and expertise. The cost for the work was fair, and did not exceed the estimate. I highly recommend Curtis Murphy - Eagle Point Building Services, and will be calling on him for future projects."

"Work was well done. Only issue was the changing schedule of when they were coming, but then didn't come until a later time. Communication could have been better so we weren't left wondering. They did have a good number of workers when it was necessary to work the concrete. I would use them again."

"Todd and his crew, remodeled my kitchen, from the floor to ceiling, in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. They were professional and courteous during a time of high stress. It was difficult to get products but Todd made it happen and in a very timely manner! He was great about giving suggestions but still working within what my vision was. I love my new kitchen!"

"This s the second time we have used Tim at Pacific Builders. He is very personable and easy to work with. He will bend over backward to make sure you are satisfied with his work. When he gives you a quote on a job he explains the variables and sticks to it. We would definitely hire him again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.
