"Provider was to contact me within three business days. That did not occur. I had to contact her. Provider said she needed several weeks before she could complete the job because she was backed up with other scheduled jobs. Provider kept asking me where I got her name, and then what price Angie's List had posted. Provider advised I did not have to be at home when she finally scheduled the job which was approximately two weeks after I had made initial contact with her. The time frame was not an issue. I was not home when the job was completed. I wish I had been. My driveway looks great, BUT I have footprints on my sidewalk; and my neighbor's lawn and my lawn (bordering the driveway) have asphault all over from being walked on by the provider's workers. Also, I had to pick up the discarded caps of the workers water bottles thrown on my neighbor's lawn and my lawn. Sloppy. "

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.
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.
Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.
