"I had a wonderful experience with Mr. Handyman of Guilford! The repairman, Paul, was professional, prompt, efficient, tackled a repair of my oven door brackets easily, replaced a bathroom door handle, and did this all with a pleasant attitude. Super nice guy! I would highly recommend them! And, I will use them again!"

"I absolutely love the professional job Arnold’s Masonry performed at my house. Arnold is a complete professional when it comes to his work. The items I want to highlight are: · Arnold was very through and detailed in his proposal. There were NO surprises. Everything we asked for he spelled out in detail. · His estimate was by far the most economical and detailed. He detailed out all costs in the proposal. There were no hidden or missed costs. Everything was detailed out. · One thing I love is that he was a one stop guy. He managed and owned all aspects of the project. · The steps and walkway he rebuilt far exceeded our expectations. He really created a focal point to the front of my house. · His team not only performed a spectacular job in replacing the existing railings but added a walkway railing for the step there. · Also he refabricated a retaining wall next to the steps and his recommendation on the type of wall far exceeded what we had asked for. · His creation of a Belgian block edging with mulch on one side of the house and on the other side A Belgian block edging with stone fill really added a refreshing look to the outside of my house. · His team also replaced siding pieces for me that had been damaged over the years. Arnold was there for the ENTIRE time the work had to be performed. He met with me each day and kept me in the loop of his progress. Arnold kept his word on how long the project would take and when he said he would be there he was PROMPT and kept to the schedule. My wife and I are so pleased with not only with the work that was performed but with the professional and courteous manner both he and his crew treated both me and my wife. I highly recommend Arnold Masonry and Construction. I could not find a better professional to work with."

"George listens to the customer, makes suggestions if necessary and proceeds with a contract. Said contract has a price range that he never exceeded depending on whether or not unforeseen issues occur. George renovated two bathrooms, installed laminate flooring on my bathrooms and master bedroom. He is efficient, neat and never leaves a project unless it is perfect. George will be called upon for all my future projects."

"Agile Construction was very professional. They asked what needed to get done and then came in and executed it flawlessly. They were able to answer my questions and explained the work and their methodology. They came to repair my window sill. And it looks way better than before."

"We recently had custom built-in bookshelves designed and installed by CT Yankee Crafts, and we couldn't be happier. From start to finish, the experience was an absolute pleasure. Nick was very communicative throughout the whole process, and he listened to our vision, then translated it onto paper and then into a beautiful masterpiece and a focal point in our new home. The best part is filling them up! Watching our book collection find its new home on these gorgeous, sturdy shelves has been so satisfying. It has completely transformed the room into a cozy sanctuary. Highly recommended for any custom woodwork!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

Converting a carport into a garage can vary in difficulty depending on its configuration, the condition of the foundation or slab, and its location relative to the house. The process has a lot in common with a home addition, but you can often skip non-essential finishes like fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall and HVAC. The conversion requires experience with drywall, insulation, and other building materials to ensure it’s done safely and correctly. While it might be possible for a DIYer with the proper tools and skills to do the work, it is a complicated and potentially dangerous job. If you’re new to basic construction, it's best to leave this project to the professionals.
