"Santos Creativity did an Amazing job on our staircase! They responded quickly when I contacted them for an estimate. Juan came out and went over design options with us. We had half walls torn down, new railing and spindles installed. They completed the job sooner than expected and we couldnt be happier with the result! We would definitely recommend and use them again."

"So impressed with Fort Bend Construction and Grounds. Extremely professional, meticulous and went above and beyond to insure satisfaction. Answered phone, returns calls immediately, shows up when they say they will. Our job was projected to take place a few weeks out and we only waited one week. It's busy season and we were taken care of quickly and efficiently. The team were all polite and respectful. That asked for our input, every step of the job, to insure we are satisfied. Jason propagates many of his own plants and I am extremely impressed with the quality and price. Quick, efficient, reasonably priced and just a pleasure to work with."

"I haven't actually gotten the work done yet because of personal circumstances that have caused me to delay the project. However, from the start, Bassam Mirza has been great. He worked with me to get the colors and products I would be happy with and the quoted price was reasonable. I hope to be able to complete the project within the next couple of months."

Woodworking FAQs, 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. 

If you don’t have a power saw with a blade where you can adjust the angle, you could use a miter box and hand saw to make the cuts. The miter box contains wide slots to support the piece of baseboard and other narrow slots to accommodate the blade of the hand saw. However, it’s tough to make non-standard cuts beyond 30 or 45 degrees when using a miter box.

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.

The boards between floor joists are called bridging or blocking boards. These are the shortest pieces of wood in the flooring system—with beams being the longest and joists sitting somewhere in the middle—and they serve to reinforce the joists and help provide even support to the flooring above. Bridging specifically helps cut down on uneven and creaking floors in your living area.

Carpentry is a skilled trade and requires many years of experience to acquire the skills necessary to do the job efficiently and correctly. Because every home requires a carpenter at some stage of the building process, carpenters are typically in high demand. The higher the skill level, the higher the hourly rate the carpenter can charge.
