"The job went perfectly. Mike and his crew are true professionals. He called me a week before and a day before - told me the crew would arrive Tuesday at 7:00am, and they actually came about 15 minutes early to begin. The entire tear-off and re-roof took only one week, which was the plan (and this was over Labor Day weekend!). Bobby was the leader on the job site. He gave me his personal cellphone the first day in case I needed to contact him for anything. We had some rainy weather that week, but Mike's philosophy is to only remove what can be recovered with liner, so no real issues with the bad weather. The entire crew was very polite, and they cleaned up and stored their tools each night. They also worked while I had 2 other contractors working on separate projects and coordinated without any interruption to the roof work. I highly recommend Mike Kinsley and his company for roof work."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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.

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.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

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.
