"Joe and Brian worked together well as a team. They were professional and courteous working thru rain and hot weather. They brought the staircase up to code as it passed inspections. New staircase is solid and looks great. Definitely recommend HD Finished Carpentry."

"We recently hired ZVL Contracting LLC to install our new patio, and the results were outstanding. From the very beginning, the team demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to quality. The entire process was smooth and well organized. Communication was excellent, the crew arrived on time, and they kept the work area clean and safe throughout the project. They paid close attention to every detail and took pride in their workmanship, ensuring that the finished patio exceeded our expectations. The quality of the installation is exceptional. The patio is not only beautiful but also built with precision and care. It has completely transformed our outdoor space and has already become a favorite gathering place for family and friends. What impressed us most was the team’s dedication to customer satisfaction. They listened to our ideas, answered all of our questions, and made sure we were happy with every aspect of the project. I highly recommend ZVL Contracting L"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

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.
