I've been in a handyman for 25 years .I'm a perfectionist any job I do has to be done right. Ever since I was 14 years old I've learned every trade like I could come across. I learned a lot throughout the years I'm not the best in the world but I'm pretty good at what I do

"He was here whenever he said he was going to be here. They followed through with everything exactly the way that he had explained that he would. But we had someone else initially remodel the bathrooms, and they did a really bad job that made them unusable, and he was able to come in and write the following: that and this, everything, and make professional suggestions for things that should have been done the right way. There were also a lot of professional suggestions as to what grout we needed. He’s very helpful in getting the correct tile and grout to make sure that our showers will last for years."

"AG CONSTRUCTION did an amazing job and I am very pleased with the results. Aaron was very polite and professional, he worked fast yet very efficient with notice to all details involved. He repaired all the dry rot underneath the front windows, cut my overgrown hedges back located right in front of the windows, power washed and painted all the exterior wood and trim on the house and hung new shutters for all front windows. If it were possible to give a rating higher than 5 I definitely would. I highly recommend AG CONSTRUCTION! I found him to be honest, trustworthy and dependable as well as knowledgeable in all areas of services rendered. Fair pricing, excellent service with excellent results. Thank you AG CONSTRUCTION!"

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.

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
