"Douglas was a pro. He completed my safe rack installation in my garage perfectly. He took his time and did a fantastic job. He took his time with all the measurements and made sure everything was straight and level. I highly recommend Douglas for your handyman projects."

"James has done multiple projects for me. I would highly recommend him. I just call him up and he can usually come within the week if not the same day. He's kind, honest, affordable, and pleasant to deal with. I wish all "pros" were like him. Thanks James!"

"Leo was very helpful and quick to respond. We’re happy with how our 2 bathrooms turned out. Project was completed within the time promised. Our only complaint is that the workers did not clean up very well. But overall, we’re satisfied and we’ll use them again."

"Andrew and his team were extremely proficient and skilled in their work. Always punctual and professional. I was so impressed with their work, I rehired them to fix issues left behind by another after seeing the high quality of work they did. The difference was clear and obvious even to a novice like me. I will need more work done in the future and I would not even consider another vendor or company. I will use them again and again and have already recommended them to any family and friends that would be in need of their services. 5 stars without hesitation."

"Edit: After seeing my review, SavOn sent a team to come back and fix all of the issues. The window has been sealed, the trim has been properly attached, and the areas have been repainted. We are now 100% happy with the results. We needed some pieces of siding repaired or replaced. After reviewing several bids, we went with Sav On. They came by a few days later on 8/25 and tore out the old siding and wood, leaving the remnants next to the side of the house. After they took it down, they went around to try to find it at a local retailer. It had to be special ordered. On 8/31, they were back they were back to install the siding. They only did the section by our bathroom window and were here for a max of 2 hours. Siding around and under the guest bathroom window was removed and replaced on 9/1. We could hear the nail gun going off and were glad that the plastic would be removed. A light bulb in bathroom was broken due to vibrations from the nail gun. When I heard the glass break, I ran upstairs and the guy installing was surprised to see me. The window had been removed for some reason that I still don't understand. He didn't think anyone was home, but he did apologize for the lightbulb. When it was quiet for an extended period, I went back upstairs to see if the window had been replaced. That is when I noticed that it was set incorrectly, very off center, and one of the glass panels was cracked. The window sill was extremely dirty and there was chipped paint everywhere. There was also a nail protruding from the top of the window. I sent an email to Ivan telling him this was completely unacceptable. On 9/2, a crew showed up to do the texturing, I told them not to do anything before Ivan came to see the damage. He showed up a few minutes later to inspect and said they would take care of it. A guy from their fix-it crew called me the following day to schedule a time to come take a look at what they needed to do to make it better. They showed up on 9/4 to reset the window, remove the nail, seal, and paint the sill. Taylor called to say someone would be over on Friday 9/11 to do an estimate for the glass. That guy came and went in just a few minutes, which was nice, but we were still in limbo about what was next. Taylor called me on 9/15 saying that the glass would be replaced on the 16th. The tech came and went pretty quickly and we had a fresh panel of glass. I got up the following Saturday, 9/19, and heard commotion outside the bathroom window. A team had stopped by to do the texturing. We are now a month and a day out from when the estimate was signed. 9/21, Ivan called asking if we had any paint that matched. We had told him twice already that we did not have any. They came by, got a sample from the removed pieces, and were back later that day to paint. 9/22, we received a notice from our HOA regarding construction garbage next to our house. I sent yet another email to Ivan asking that they please remove it all. He returned with another guy 9/23 to remove all the junk and do some touch up painting. When they thought they were done, Ivan said to me, It looks pretty good, does it not?* I asked him about all the staples from the plastic sheeting that were still in the accent wood. He looked to the guy standing next to him and asked why there were so many. Anyway, they said they would remove them. I also pointed out all the visible holes from where the nails were put in, he said they would take care of those. They only took care of the ones that can be seen from the front of the house. The staples were removed and we can not really see where they were, holes are still visible on the left and right sides of accent wood, and on the framing by the roof where they replaced the vertical pieces. Paint is streaking and wood is not flush to the house. Buyer Beware."

"Allwyn was super responsive and collaborative. He worked with us to design the final solution (a unique shaped concrete pad with stamp design) which ended up being much less expensive and much more beautiful and functional than the original plan (a wood deck). He went beyond what was asked to make sure he and we would be proud of the result. Allwyn asked great questions, attended to detail, and offered creative changes. We had some challenges with an electrician Allwyn subcontracted. The electrician missed some appointments. Ultimately, the work was completed and the quality was excellent. I look forward to working with Allwyn again."

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, 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.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.
