"I hired Chris for 10 light installations that required higher construction and electrical knowledge than a typical Handyman. From the onset, Chris provided excellent communication and estimates for all of my revisions! Chris was on-time and fully prepared with an extensive tool armory.... ready for any curve ball he might encounter. The project took the majority of 2 days. Upon each installation, Chris gained my approval. Chris is highly professional with a positive personality. If you want someone who doesn't cut-corners, uses quality materials, doesn't give you lip service, and gets the job done on-time the right way with no surprises; give CAP Construction a call."

"I highly recommend Jyra Home Solutions. They put new siding on my home and built a 2 car, carport. When we initially went over the project, Seth made further recommendations to enhance my home, when they finished the project, every aspect of the initial plans was completed, with a total home exterior makeover. The professionalism and craftsmanship of their work was above and beyond. If you are looking for a reliable, professional home remodeler, you can't go wrong with this company. I couldn't be happier with the job they did. I have had numerous people stop by complimenting how good my house looks now. If I ever come up with any new projects, I would look no further than Jyra Home Solutions. A Totally Satisfied Customer, Dave M"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.
