"Perfect. They did excellent work. Very professional and very clean as well. I don't think another carpenter could have done what needed to be done as well as Carlos did. I am extremely pleased."

"Anthony did a wonderful job putting new door fronts on our cabinets in the kitchen, laundry, room, and small bathroom. He was also able to install drawers where there used to be cabinets. He was very conscientious to make sure that I was happy with the door style that was chosen. The men who came in to do the installation were efficient and friendly. Anthony is excellent at communicating during the process and returns any calls very quickly. I’m very happy with the results and highly recommend Anthony’s custom remodeling."

"Kyle came by my condo, listened patiently to my needs and gave me a fair quote to do the work. He returned the next day and completed all the work skillfully and expeditiously. Kyle insisted we walk around the condo together to confirm all the work was done to my satisfaction. The work done included painting, caulking and handyman work. Kyle clearly showed pride in his work and concern for me, his customer. I will hire him again without hesitation and would recommend his company to anyone needing handyman services."

"They were on time, knew exactly what to do. Both men went to work right away. Each man taking half the project. They were very friendly and answered my questions. They even cleaned up and took out the trash/packaging. I will use this company again. I heard they have pros in every line of handyman home repair/remodeling."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
