"John of Plymouth Nursery and Landscaping and his staff were wonderful. They did a terrific job cleaning up my property and planting all new beautiful shrubs and plants. Also installed a system to help with my water problem. My property was in desperate need of a face lift and John and his crew came through. I would recommend Plymouth Nursery and Landscaping!"

"Dave and Justin were unbelievable in every way. Their bid was very reasonable, but we would have hired them anyway. They impressed us with their knowledge and the fact that they are the guys who actually do the work. The deck was completed in record time, every detail was right on, and the results are beautiful. We are more than happy to give Ryden the highest recommendation."

He was efficient, reliable, and made sure everything was properly done. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing home repairs."

"Was introduced to him by a friend; he did some pretty major carpentry work on the floor of my house which was starting to sag. He was very responsive and professional throughout, and left everything clean and orderly. Definitely would hire again"

"The cultural, landscapes crew replaced the ceiling of our outdoor pavilion with bead board. Everything about the experience was great. The work looks beautiful. The office stuff and crew were friendly and professional. They actually did more than asked, helping me with some bird issues, and a few other things I would definitely hire them again!"

Customers say: Quick response

"I highly recommend David Alan Construction. They installed new windows in our home recently and the experience could not have bern better. We received top quality windows at a reasonable price. They were able to get the windows sooner than expected. They were very professional, cleaned everything up when finished and took old windows away. In addition, they had someone from the window company come outto clean the windows since there was so much silicone left on them. If you need any work done, you owe it to yourself to call Dave for an estimate. Pat T. Churchville PA"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

The boards between floor joists are called bridging or blocking boards. These are the shortest pieces of wood in the flooring system—with beams being the longest and joists sitting somewhere in the middle—and they serve to reinforce the joists and help provide even support to the flooring above. Bridging specifically helps cut down on uneven and creaking floors in your living area.

Whether or not it’s easier to cut wood when it’s wet versus dry depends largely on the type of tool you use and the wood you’re cutting. For example, a chain saw should still be able to cut through wet wood with relative ease, but it may be more difficult to maneuver due to the wood fibers sticking to the chains of the saw. 

However, you might want to avoid cutting wood entirely when it’s wet if you’re pruning your tree. Sawing a wet tree that you don’t plan on removing can also encourage bacterial and fungal growth and decay.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

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.
