"Hired for 2 jobs. They are very nice, but they do not know what they are doing and they do not complete the work that they contract. Didn't nail down Advantech subfloor to joist correctly (literally missed the joist in several places), and it makes creaking and popping noises. Broke our floor joist by trying to jack up entire house with bottle jack instead of using the sister boards we gave them to level the floor. Contracted for dry wall skim coat on two rooms ceiling job. Only skim coated one room and partially patched (there were screw heads not covered and corners not done) and they did not skim coat the other room. The skim coat was uneven and left multiple large lumps and divits. I sent pictures of problems. They said pay now and call them back after it was painted. Paint did not hide corner cracks, unsealed drywall tape, unsanded lumps, etc. Had to hire another company to do the job correctly. So we paid double for the job. "

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

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. 

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
