"We had a deck built by E & A Cortez Construction. Emilio was pleasant to work with. He kept his word at all phases of the project and let us know immediately about any problems he encountered or if there was going to be any kind of delay. We are very please with this project."

"Highly recommended. He rebuilt the built-ins in my laundry room, turn the garage hall closet into a nice mud room, and completely gutted and made new built-ins for my master closet including crown molding and floor platform. He hand made cabinet doors and drawers to match my existing house cabinets. Exceeded my expectations, especially with value."

"Victor came out and gave me a estimate to replace some rotten wood siding and place a metal post for my storm damaged patio cover. I hired him and he started next day. Victor was thorough and detail oriented. Very happy with his work and will keep his # for future and friends in need."

"If you are looking for a solid construction company sonart is the way to go for sure! All I could say was wow aside from the fact that my mouth was completely open for a solid five minutes LOL! The house was built around the 50s and hasnâ t been updated since the original build. To see our bathrooms brought more to a modern the lights was honestly heartwarming I know my mother would have appreciated this!Thank you again guys for your hard work!"

"This company did an amazing job with a deck build for us! We showed them some ideas we had and they made some small but impactful design tweaks and came up with something even better than what we’d imagined! Really professional crew - showed up on time, cleaned up after themselves, and - most importantly - build a beautiful, high-quality deck! Would definitely recommend."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

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. 

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
