"If I could give zero stars I would! We had the most HORRIBLE experience with Christan/Nighthawk!!! We had a 3 phase home addition that was to be done in 6 months. It took 11 months and he only made it thru phase 2. He took our money then proceeded to only show up once a week for most of the project!! He left our roof off - exposing our home to extensive damage that he ignored - for 3 MONTHS!!!! He claimed we were a priority project to him and yet never showed up. And to add insult to injury the work he did was AWFUL! Framing was left exposed to the elements so long it grew mold (that we had to treat on our own dime) and the inside framing was so wrong that we had to rip it down and fix on our own. Beware of a sheep in wolfs clothing. Christian talks a good game and you'll believe he is a good guy/business man but he did us sooooo wrong!!! All I can say is do not make the same mistake we did - go with someone else!!!!"

"My husband and I realized our crawl space was flooded and couldn't figure out where/how to turn off the main water line coming into our house. Brendan Julian has helped us numerous times in the past with household improvements and repairs. I luckily had the great idea to call him for assistance. Due to the emergency situation, he was at our house in maybe half an hour--incredible. Brendan found the main water valve, which was buried under a few inches of mulch, by looking at where the valve was in our neighbor's yard. Brendan knew how to turn off the water and the emergency was resolved. Later that day we called Brendan to ask how to get the sump pump we bought to pump out the crawlspace (only type of pump available at Home Depot) to turn on. We couldn't figure this out after reading the pump instructions several times and watching some YouTube videos. Brendan gave us the critical missing instruction--the float has to be higher than the pump to work--and the sump pump roared to life. Second problem solved. Several days later once the crawlspace dried out, Brendan came out to try and repair our land line phone line which had stopped working when the crawlspace flooded. Brendan found that the phone line hadn't been properly tied up by the original installer 15 years ago and had shorted out from the flooding. Brendan repaired the line, properly tied it up, and the phone started working. Third problem solved. Thank goodness for Brendan Julian. He is awesome!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Not all wood that’s been softened by termites needs to be replaced. You may be able to salvage wood using a wood hardener instead of replacing beams. However, you’ll need to hire a structural engineer to assess the damage and the overall stability of the wood before making a replacement plan.

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. 

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

The most likely causes of a deck leaning to one side are damaged deck posts, soil erosion, and inadequate deck footings. If you’re not sure about the exact cause, the best option is to call a contractor who can build a deck to inspect the damage and recommend the best way forward.
