Customers say: Quick response

"Well, this was an early Christmas gift! Found Dylan through home advisors. He promptly called after we sought a handyman to replace our fireplace mantle. Itâ s harder than heck to find someone, anyone, to do small household projects, let alone someone so quickly. We exchanged photos of the old mantle and the new one. Dylan promised to stop by to finally estimate the project. Hereâ s the best part: Dylan, who makes for a very good first impression, offered to start the job right then and there, saying he could do the demo work and finish two days later. Hereâ s the even better part: He completed the demo and then mounted the new new mantle the same day. We were very happy with the care he took as he did the project, including adding an additional way to secure the mantle to the wall so not even one of our famous earthquakes could move it from its mountings. Really excellent work. We would definitely hire him again. Patrick"

"It can be really difficult to find the right contractor, one who is honest, shows up on time and does quality work at realistic prices. I found them in Bielefield Construction! This company has a great crew with many talents. Ray built us a dream deck that will last at least two life times. Thank you Bielefield Construction and crew."

"Amazing general contractor!!! Worked with Blake and his team to help rebuild a couple of our rooms damaged by a tree that fell. He was helpful in communicating with our insurance and met their qualifications and pricing. He was professional and on-site doing the work himself most days. He communicated really well about any needs and kept me up-to-date. I plan to work with him on future projects. I can't recommend him more highly."

"Patrick's prompt response to my inquiry, his written estimate and contract, start and completion of work was by far the best I have received in Oregon. His leadership skills with his crew was very courteous and thoughtful. When I requested a couple of changes he was upfront on the cost and never complained. I would recommend him highly and would definitely contact him again for future projects."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

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.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.
