"Do NOT trust this company? Did a remodel project at my home.. Did not bother to pull building permit for the majority of the project.. Completed HVAC and electrical work that he isn?t competent enough to do.. For the first time living at my home- we now have water coming in our mechanical room through pipes he ?re-routed?? We also found a pipe from the heater completely disconnected from a pipe leading to outside which I can only assume is for heater exhaust- putting us at risk for carbon monoxide.!!! When approached about this.. He says ?mistakes happen in our industry???.. Minimal to all of the safety issues this man has created- they are insanely messy.. it took me 3 days to clean up their deck expansion and patio door replacement mess? They threw so many discarded materials and screws on to our basketball court and rocks.. Left the deck wide open (7 feet in the air) for days at a time during construction?. Left power tools everywhere overnight with small children in the house?. "

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

DIY is possible, but professional construction ensures structural integrity and proper anchoring.
