"Dimas and his crew did a nice job on my lawn. I am pleased with the mowing and edging work that they did. The price was reasonable. Dimas was pleasant during the consultation when he came out to my house to look at my lawn. I would hire them again for future lawn care needs."

Customers say: True professional

"While doing some remodeling we noticed that the exterior door frame to the back yard was completely rotted. So of course the wife makes a honey-do-list and the husband, try’s fixing it. It didn’t work out as planned and had to find a contractor to come fix the job. After several calls, JT’s was the first one that could come out the exact same day!! So thankful! And he didn’t charge an arm and a leg! Hopefully we won’t have to, but would definitely contact him again if needed :) he is the first person I would call if you are reading this comment! You won’t regret it!"

"Gabes Home Solutions contacted me and set up an appointment to put together a treadmill. He presented early and was extremely friendly and explained what he would be doing and how long it might take. He worked quietly and deliberately finishing ahead of schedule. The price he quoted was exactly what he charged. He even helped me to place it where my wife wanted it. Excellent service! He provided me with a list of handyman services that he provided, after I asked and I definitely will be using him again."

"He did excellent work repairing my front door and some sheetrock work in my garage, He was prompt, courteous and reasonably priced, however he damaged my wood flooring during the course of his work and did not want to take responsibility for it. So for that reason i would not recommend him."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

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.

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.
