"Kurt did a great job and was very efficient. He was able to repair all rot, and at a fraction of the cost of several other estimates. He repaired several window frames and replaced some of the baseboards. I was worried about having to replace siding, but only one small piece had to be replaced. Kurt is a great contractor and is very reliable and honest. We are planning to hire him to do more work on the back of our house."

"Najeeb came in, evaluated the job site and needs and made short order of finishing the project. He is always polite, timely and freely shares his experience and knowledge. The wall was not a routine patch; more like a replacement. I absolutely will rehire and recommend Hamdan Handyman LLC."

"I contracted C.U. Building Dreams LLC to rebuild my back deck with a different footprint and to build a patio. Additionally, I had the siding on the back of the house replaced. Claudio and his team did an excellent job, adhering to a timely schedule and offering a fair price. They went above and beyond my expectations and maintained a high level of professionalism throughout the project. During Claudioâ s first visit, he collaborated with me to develop a proposed design, immediately showing me the new layout on his iPad. He produced a quote within a few days. Claudio was quick to resolve any unexpected issues that arose during the project. I would not hesitate to hire him and his team for future work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

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.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.
