"We hired Gilberto to help inspect and repair some window trim wood rot. The damage ended up being much more extensive than we expected. Gilberto worked with us to replace all the wood trim carefully and was able to save our window glass. The woodwork repair was excellent, very seamless finish and we could tell that he really knows his stuff. He is very skilled, professional and friendly and as someone else mentioned excellent can do attitude indeed! His pricing was also very fair and he also had excellent communication. He would make sure to check with us before proceeding on any changes and also sent videos of the work and his progress along the way. The final product is much better than we expected and he left the job area clean and organized. He also removed an old carpet for us as well as old shelving very quickly and hauled and cleaned at a very reasonable cost. We will be defintley be having him do some additional handyman work/ home repairs in the future."

"Josh did a great job on my roofing repair! He showed up when he said he would, and the roof looks great! He also installed some replacement skylights and siding. He sent many pics of the job as I wasn’t able to be there when the work was performed. I will definitely use him again."

"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."

"Plumbing 1 builders was the perfect team to come and help us with our needs. We got a full hardware replacement for our shower. They were quick and on time when it came to the quote process. They offered us the most competitive price in our area, while also being the most professional with the overall process. They didn’t try to upsell us on anything or spook us about our current set up, which did happen with other plumbers who came to give us a quote. They were quick and professional with the work as well. Everything exceeded my expectations in terms of execution. On top of that, they caught a weird error that was done by the builders and went out of their way to find a solution. We will most definitely reach out to them for any plumbing needs going forward!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
