"Carlos and his team did an amazing job building out my new fence and the new patio cover, as well as laying a concrete slab for the patio. Would highly recommend them. From his work, he's gotten two other jobs in the neighborhood."

"Hector was absolutely amazing from our first contact. I explained what we needed and why! (A story behind our privacy fence panels from a crazy neighbor lol) and he and his amazing crew knocked it out of the park! My husband and I have already asked for quotes on our future projects. We have truly found an amazing company to complete those. The crew's attention to details and the clean up they did was so professional and respectful. They were willing to haul off the trash but when we said absolutely not....drop it in our trash bins....we got this, they asked "are you sure, we don't mind". It was a no brainer. This company is absolutely great and I encourage anyone to hire these guys for your projects. Thank you Hector and the crew...we are forever grateful."

"I have been remodeling a fixer upper for a year now. On two different occasions I have used BTXteriors. Both times they were friendly, affordable and efficient. They were there when they said they would be and got both jobs completed in the time span they had promised. I wish more contractors had the integrity of Codey, Brett and Bryan. 100% recommend them to anyone wanting a new shop or building built."

"We hired Gunter Gables to build out a desk area for my wife. We had some specific requests for the desk and Mike Latva and his son delivered a perfect solution. I’ll be having Mike back to do some additional work for me in the future."

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.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

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.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.
