"I needed a deck repair and was dealing with someone else who led me on for a month with only one estimate...done one way. They would not do what I wanted (less repair). Howard at Lane Home Improvement called me to tell me he usually did not do the work I was wanting but came by to give me pointers, answer questions and tell me what he thought needed done even though he knew he probably would not be taking the job. I mean.....who does that?? Howard was so nice and easy to work with and fit me in before another big job he had lined up. I hired him just because he is so nice and then hoped for the best. I could not be more happy with the job. Plus.....he got started right away and worked with my budget. I would recommend him to anyone."

"We needed baseboards installed in 2 rooms and had a tight time frame for getting the work completed. Nathan Long responded quickly, helped us select a beautiful product and installed the baseboards promptly. His workmanship is stellar and the results are beautiful! I would highly recommend Long Company Fine Carpentry."

"Alex did an absolutely wonderful job on the remodel of our home. We thought it would take a lot longer than it did! He is very honest, transparent and explained everything very well before starting so we were well-informed of what to expect. He took take of our home and the space he worked at diligently. We worked with various contractors in the past and he will be our go-to going forward! That says it all!"

"Russ was amazing to work with. Very professional and easy to get ahold of when we had questions. He came out multiple times to ensure that we had the proper stain to match the floors. He worked on our time frame as we had contractors we were working around. I would recommend him to anyone looking to refinish a staircase."

"This was a great company to work with. Manuel is very knowledgeable in many aspects of the construction trade. We recently moved into a new home and had several questions and needs regarding the new home. He is a very pleasant and patient person to deal with and he pointed out several things for us to consider."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.
