"The brothers worked hard to make my home beautiful. They replaced all the rotten wood under the old siding. They put in insulation that was missing around all the windows, making my house more weather tight. When a window that had simply been covered up previously was found, they put in wood and insulation. Then they replaced all of the siding with durable Hardyboard and painted in the 3 color palette I chose to complement my Craftsman cottage. Then they replaced all the gutters with new covered ones that can be cleaned easily when needed. Finally, they reroofed the shed and painted it to match. They installed new lights and anything else I asked for. Everything around the house was left clean and orderly. The work is meticulous and thorough. My house hasn't looked this good ever before, probably even when it was just built. It's better than brand new! I will gladly work with them again on any future building projects."

Carpentry 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. 

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

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.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.
