"Rita was amazing and FAST in getting everything set up. She responded in less than a day and fit us into the schedule immediately. As background, I had ordered a heavy armoire desk that could only be delivered at the point of entry of our home (due to Covid restrictions) and yet needed to get up a steep flight of stairs...and I could not do it myself. The team arrived and got on it right away. Super friendly, professional, courteous, tidy and got the job done quickly. I could not be more pleased and will hire FRG Handyman services again for sure. Highly recommend!"

"We are very happy with this company. They have done some work at our townhouse and we are definitely hiring them for any other future renovations. It is so difficult to find a contractor you can trust and when we met Ofer, we are very pleased. He is easy to talk to and he listened to what we want to get done and worked with our budget."

"Arroyo Brothers are experts in every phase of the construction process. They can act as general contractors or specialized craftsmen. We have enjoyed their expertise for 20+ years. They completed a major exterior remodel for us, including cedar shingle siding, construction of 2 new decks, a new roof, and a portico addition. They also completed major interior remodeling including a complete kitchen remodel, bathroom remodel, and bedroom addition. They have remodeled our yard, including the construction of a magnificent flagstone firepit. They have worked with our interior designer to ensure impeccable results. The quality of their work is extraordinary. They are dependable, conscientious and efficient. Once you hire Arroyo Brothers, you will never hire anyone else!"

"Eric took over a partially completed remodeling job. The job
included framing a new floor where there had been a sunken conversation pit,
hanging doors, replacing the old baseboards and completing a wall with new drywall.
His bid was very reasonable and he completed the job quickly and efficiently. I
would use him again and I would definitely recommend him to others.

"I couldn’t be happier with the work done on my home. He was professional, thorough, and clearly takes pride in doing things the right way. What started as a repair to the flashing and paneling turned into an even better result than I expected, he went above and beyond and even replaced the vent above the paneling, which really shows the level of care he brings to his work. The finished result looks fantastic, and the repair blends in beautifully with the rest of the house. He was careful, responsive, and made sure everything was done properly from start to finish. It’s hard to find someone who is this reliable, skilled, and detail-oriented. I would absolutely recommend him for any job from small to big— he can do it all. I’m very grateful for the quality of his work and will gladly call him again for future projects."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.
