"I chose Marcelino because of all the high ratings he received for his work. He lived up to the praise in both his work and treatment of me as a customer. His prices are very reasonable, he and his crew are on time and very professional. He not only treated me with patience and friendliness, but his work was excellent. In fact, he helped me figure out what I needed and did great designs for the work. One other thing that was very important to me is that other companies I quoted would have limits on what they did. So when I had specialized needs or little requests, they would say, "We don't do that." But Marcelino would do it. He did everything I needed, even small specialized things, and all completely professional. He went above and beyond. I hired him three times. First for my bedroom closet and office credenza. Then for a living room credenza, bathroom cabinets, kitchen roll-out cabinets and laundry room build out. Now, he is going to do my garage. I wouldn't use anyone else."

"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

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.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

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