"Michele installed Crown Moulding in my old city home. She was responsive, easy to work with and was able to schedule our job within a reasonable time frame. She is very knowledgeable. She provided examples and great advice. She worked very hard during the installation, handling the challenges an old home provides with grace and patience. I love the resultsâ ¦ itâ s beautiful and exactly what I wanted it to be!!!"

"Steve assembled a trampoline for me in about 3 hours on a Friday morning. He was kind, knowledgeable, and communicative throughout the whole process. He broke a bolt during installation and drove to the local hardware store to replace it. He also hauled all the trash away for a small, reasonable extra fee that was negotiated in the spot. Zero complaints. Just good work. Steve will be the first person I call for assistance with other jobs from now on for sure. Thank you!"

"What a great experience with Travis - professional, honest, timely, and a good communicator. I had a 14 year old deck that looked tired and needed a new look .Travis suggested we were able to still use the frame and totally update everything else( composite floor and steps, wood railings and aluminum balusters) for a very good cost savings over most , or should I say ALL other deck builders!!!! I appreciate his honesty and forthrightness during the whole process. There was no long wait to rebuild it or no delays during the process. My deck is beautiful, It speaks quality. I am happy. Such a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend. Thank you Travis."

"Utlized them a few times now for some home repairs. Alexander team has great communication from start to finish. Shows up on time. On a larger job them kept me informed of the progress and next steps as my laundry room was being repaired after some water damage. Left us feeling very good about choosing them for the repair work. Water damage was difficult enough to deal with and they helped make it easier. Will definitely be continuing to utilize their services for future projects and repairs."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.
