"Corey is a great guy! Very professional and hard working. We had him add trimwork to our two story wall to frame out our living room and foyer. The wood that is on our railing to our loft was installed 20 years ago. He managed to mix stains together to come up with a very close color. It looks beautiful! We will definitely hire him for other projects!"

"Had a rotting 20 foot support beam under our deck. Jeremiah came up with a plan to replace the beam and improve the structural integrity of the deck. Complex operation since there is a heavy pergola on top of the deck but he was able to complete it in one day. Super happy with the results."

"Moser Construction did an excellent job building a deck for us. The crew was prompt, respectful, hardworking, and accommodating to a few new requests that we made. The deck looks great, and we're already enjoying it. I highly recommend Mike and his team!"

"Found these guys on Angis and asked for a quote on a metal roof and gutters. This was the only contractor to get back to us within the week. Their sales rep Andy Leach came out and was very professional and we could tell by the way we he spoke with us that he takes a lot of pride in his work and his company. We decide to use them based on this and the fact that they use higher end materials and offer a great lifetime warranty. It was a quick and efficient process. They came out to start our metal roof in under 2 weeks and was done in just a few of days with the roof and the 6 inch gutters we had them install. The project Caleb, stayed in contact with us and made sure to iron out a few issues and took care of the cleanup for us. Great company, good people. Would recommend them to anyone who asks."

"We hired Ty to do a kitchen remodel. He asked what we were looking for and if we were set on anything particular. We gave him our ideas and of course asked his input. He came up with a few ideas and presented them to us. Once everything had been decided, he was extremely on point with bringing the project to life. He was professional throughout the entire project, communicated everything, was punctual and completely transformed our kitchen. We plan on remodeling our bathroom next and he is the man for the job."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.

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.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

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.
