"I'm very happy with the work that I had done as well as the very fair price. David made sure to explain what was happening as he completed the project, and worked with me on the best way to address some issues that were uncovered as the old roof was removed. They showed up exactly when they said they would, and finished right on schedule."

"Jeff came out and did an assessment prior to replacing the front door. I explained to him our concerns about water intrusion around the door and he was able to address those when he installed the new door. I was happy that he gave me a written estimate with the painting both included and excluded (I’m doing the painting)."

"We recently hired Falfanys Painting to install luxury vinyl flooring and paint the interior of our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! Their team was professional, punctual, and paid great attention to detail throughout the entire process. Not only did they handle the flooring installation flawlessly, but they also installed and painted all the baseboards, which really tied the whole look together. The quality of their work was top-notch, and they made sure everything was clean and precise before finishing up. If you’re looking for reliable, skilled professionals for flooring or painting, I highly recommend Falfanys Painting. They transformed our home and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Pictures show before and after!"

Most of all, the communication throught the project was refreshing. The crew would show up on time and was respectful of our home. They cleaned up the work area at the end of every day.

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

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.
