"Carport Support Posts replacement. Home Worx quote was comparable to the three other quotes we received. Repair work was started within a few days of acceptance of quote. The project was completed in a timely manner and with great craftsmanship. Dave was reliable and knowledgeable about the work and code requirements. We appreciated how Dave kept us apprised to each step in the completion of the carport posts replacement. Clean up of the work site was quick and efficient. We would not hesitate to employ Home Worx, LLC in any future projects and we highly recommend Dave and his company. Jane B, Lynnwood"

"I enthusiastically recommend Summit Painting LLC (Stuart Riensche, owner) for house and deck painting. They painted the exterior of our house and our deck at the end of May and did an excellent job. The pressure washing and priming and painting went without a hitch and the house looks great. The painters were punctual, professional, courteous, efficient and receptive to requests ( e.g., removing an awning and frame, disposing of paint and primer-containing liquid waste at an offsite facility, and excellent cleanup). They also removed, replaced and painted a deteriorating deck banister. The price was very close to the estimate and was very reasonable. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again when needed."

"Peter painted our fiberglass front door to our home. The fiberglass doors were challenging, and he spend a great deal of time with the prep of the door and around the glass inserts around the door. His work was outstanding, and the finished product was probably better than when we bought the doors new. We sincerely appreciated his work and highly recommend him for any projects one has in regard to specialty painting."

"The team of brothers came right on time, listened intently during the walk through for design and executed the fence build in a single day. Granted I had already sunk the posts in their locations, but the guys were fast, efficient and built a beautiful fence."

Small jobs welcome

"Roman and Tatiana helped me out on two occasions. I hired them one time to fix some loose planks on the ceiling of my porch and another time to fix some siding/wood rot. They did a great job on both occasions. Roman doesn't sell you on things that you don't need. In fact, he presented me with a range of options and advised me on the most cost-effective way to get the job done. His workmanship is great. I did a double take on the siding repair because I could not see how he fit the siding around the water spigot until I looked closely. The gap was very small and concealed well. Tatiana was very responsive in scheduling the jobs, answering my questions even on the weekend."

"Was the only contractor that called me back right away. Scheduled an appt on the phone. Got the project completed before the time frame he suggested. Very friendly. Showed many different jobs he has done. Those photos are amazing. Always a bit early every day to make sure the guys knew what they were doing for the day. Would totally use these guys again."

"The crew complete work in May 2025. Project complete included building a rock wall, repairing the fence and another rock wall, making a small patio with flagstone, building a raised bed, removing several shrubs and transplanting 2 shrubs and a small tree. The crew picked up the flagstone, and rocks and also compost to use in the garden. In addition, several indoor projects were building a mantel, doors for a small closet and cabinet and dry covers in the laundry room. Norbert was great to work with and Ali for his carpentry skill, as well as the crew. The all worked hard, were efficient and very professional."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

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.

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.
