"I liked his tile setter but the rest needs to be reviewed. 1. Cabinets were level but he bought to many cabinets 2. The trim has already come off as they were only pinned and not reinforced with glue. 3. Has refused or ignored calls to fix the trim. 4. He is not a detail person as the luxury vinyl has noticeable gaps in the lines that capture dirt. 5. Did not finish some of the flooring trim. 6. Replaced water heater but ignored the warning on the electrical connections that said ?do not connect with aluminum wire as it heats up. It burned the top plate. 7. Base boards at the corners looked like a teenager cut the corners. He did rectify this problem. He covered all the nail holes with white caulking and it is attacking dirt. I had to scrape it all off and fix it. 8. One cabinet had the holes drilled at the wrong height for the drawer pulls his fix was to use the wax supplied to disguise the mistakes. 9. IF YOU HIRE , I SUGGEST YOU WITHHOLD 5,000 dollars be held"

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.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.
