"Eric is amazing. I’ve worked with him on multiple projects over a year and a half approximately. He’s been able to help me re-side multiple homes with cement fiber board, he’s has remodeled bathrooms, drywall repair and in many places complete reconstruction. He has done an amazing job reframing countless windows and doors for me. He has built fences for me, and rewired large sections of homes for me as well. Skylight installation, roof repair, painting…the list goes on. In truth I’ve utilized his skills and knowledge so much that I often wonder how I was able to do things before I was introduced to him. His work has always been above and beyond what I expected and his rates have obviously been more then reasonable, otherwise I wouldn’t have utilized his services so many times. I cannot recommend his services enough, and I will continue to use him as often as I can."

"?????????? Absolutely Perfect Roof ? Couldn?t Be Happier! We had an incredible experience with this roofing company from start to finish. From the very first call to the final clean-up, the entire process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. I can't say enough about this company! We made the switch from tile to a stunning new composition roof, and the transformation is unbelievable. Not only does it look amazing?it also gives our home a fresh, modern look. The crew was punctual, respectful. They took the time to explain the process, answered all our questions, and kept the work area clean every step of the way. What really impressed us was the attention to detail. Every shingle was placed perfectly, the lines are clean, and the finish is flawless. You can tell they take great pride in their work, and it shows. Even our neighbors have commented on how great the new roof looks! They even worked out an inhouse payment plan with us!"

"We had a great experience with Mejia's on a very complex fence project. Approx 140 feet of fencing, completely falling apart and surrounded by multiple issues (tree trunks, overgrowth, concrete, a hill side, etc.) They evaluated us quickly, the quote came in on target, they scheduled us immediately and stayed in communication with us every step of the way. The work only took a couple days and the cleanup they did on the job site had our land looking better than when they arrived. Best of all the fence turned out five-star-top-quality and ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. If you hire these guys for your project, rest assured you've made the right choice."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

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. 

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.
