"Contractors Group did a fantastic job overhauling our master bath. Their proposal presentation was top notch, design was excellent, communication was consistent, delivery was ahead of schedule, and final product is even better than we'd hoped. We'd highly recommend Contractor's Group!"

"Fred Oakley is the best contractor we have ever worked with. He does what he says he will do, when he says he will do it, at the price he said he would do it for. He is also the *cleanest* contractor we have ever known! Honest, reliable, great communication, improvises when he needs to, listens to what the customer wants -- can't recommend him enough. Our bathroom (not remodeled since the house was built in 1960) is absolutely transformed, thanks to Fred. And a space which the realtor said absolutely could not hold a dishwasher--now has a dishwasher! We are able to stay in our house longer now with Fred's improvements, and we are grateful to him for his professionalism, his courtesy, his good nature, his expertise, his attention to detail, and his skill. Thank you, Fred."

"James came into a difficult project, abandoned by another contractor, and in just two weeks accomplished more than we ever could have expected. His team is reliable and does great work. James also gave us some solid advice that helped us do what really needed to be done and saved us time and money. Highly recommend Elemental Design."

"My Home Services LLC completed a home renovation project. The project included demolition and complete remodel of three and a half bathrooms, which included installing a tile shower and tile floor. This included drywall and tile installation, replacing the bathtubs and toilets, and molding replaced. They also replaced the tile and wood floor in the kitchen and Landry room with tile flooring. They replaced the storm door to the front of the house as well replacing a large window in the living room. They also patched all the drywall holes from the previous electrical work, which replaced all the switch, plugs and fixtures in the home, as well installed canned lights and installed new lighting in other areas of the home. They also completely painted the entire home. This included ceiling, walls, closets, pantry, and patching and completing dry wall repairs. They are very detail oriented and did an outstanding job. The communications were outstanding through the entire process they are honest and trustworthy. The project was completed in six weeks. They were on time every day and the job completed as promised. Great company, highly recommended. This company was excellent: high standards, excellent work ethic, prompt, patient, customer attentiveness, concern for quality and detail. His pricing is competitive and reasonable. The work was top notch. They addressed any concerns we had and had solutions. Would highly recommend them. Admittedly, I was uneasy at first about hiring a company I found online, but I'm sure glad I found them! I now have a contractor whose phone number is worth keeping! Reasonable prices and excellent work. They were very neat, meticulous and cleaned up after. Responsive, accommodating to my needs and took pride in their work."

"The bathroom in our 1960s rental house had to be totally gutted down to the studs due to a water leak. I chose KM Home Improvement over three other contractors because Ali and his team thought of every detail and made excellent suggestions. After ordering all the fixtures and finishes, I had to fly home to Chicago, so for the entire length of the project, Ali and I communicated by phone. I totally trusted them with the project. They were reliable, professional, easy to communicate with, and the bathroom turned out absolutely gorgeous. I highly recommend them to deliver an outstanding project. Thank you, Ali and team!"

"Sergio and Southern Bright Star are absolutely amazing. He is meticulous in his work and his work ethic is superb. We had a previous contractor who had done an unprofessional job and my bathroom was a mess. The floor was not put in properly. The drywall was incomplete, the toilet leaked as soon as they left and the painting was amateur at best. Southern Bright Star came in behind these glaring mistakes and carefully and methodically worked what seemed like a miracle. He did not leave until we were completely satisfied. I would highly and enthusiastically recommend him and his company with absolutely no reservation."

"Exemplary! Jason delivered based on his recommendations and suggestions for our damaged fence and deck. During a bad storm, a large tree fell on our wooden fence and deck. I found good reviews online about Jason Mechler of Golden Rule and hired him. He explained the scope of work for rebuilding and repairing our damaged property. He and his crew worked hard and we are pleased with the result. I am convinced Golden Rule contractors are the best in Nashville because of Jason's attitude, character and work ethic. His knowledge, professionalism and respectfulness set him apart from several other contractors that bid on this job. His price was competitive for the work that had to be done. If you want the job done right, hire Jason Mechler of Golden Rule. His expertise on fence and deck building and repair is valuable to homeowners who are met with the hard work and challenges of home maintenance and repair. He is undoubtedly one of the best in the Nashville area and in demand."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

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.
