"We hired Dan a few times, and we were very happy. He built railings on our home, first. The biggest job he did was extensive rot repair around our 1938 vintage Cape and on our real estate office adjacent to our home. He removed the rot and replaced with a more durable engineered product. When it came to painting, Dan knew we wanted a "Nantucket" vibe and suggested a beautiful color with soft yellow doors, which is so warm and inviting to our customers! Dan went above and beyond when he surprised us with the addition of post skirts to add a decorative touch to the front of the real eatate office. Dan also did some plaster repair on our old horsehair plaster, and it was as smooth as glass! The best thing about the jobs was that Dan showed up on time, and did not leave to run off to other jobs. He stayed right with it to completion! Very professional. Highly recommend!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can use a nail to find ceiling joists, but it’s not as reliable as a stud finder, and you’ll end up with lots of small holes in your ceiling. If the nail hits a joist, you'll feel increased resistance. Mark the spot with a pencil. Repeat this process regularly along the ceiling, 16 or 24 inches apart, until you've mapped out the joist locations.

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.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

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.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.
