"John is a pleasure to work with. His work is beautiful, and he is a great problem solver. He put the trim in our living room and bedroom and build a gorgeous dining room buffet. He is an excellent finish carpenter and dependable. He arrived when he said he would and worked diligently to get the job finished promptly. We would highly recommend him."

"We hired Gary through Angi initially because Wayfair was not able to provide assembly services for our king bed frame. We got SO lucky. Gary and his brother were absolutely amazing from assembling our bedframe with no parts labeled by Wayfair he somehow managed to eyeball and assemble it perfectly. Gary’s brother assembled our dining table in the meantime . Additionally our movers declined installing our tv and Gary immediately offered to do so at the same job. Reasonably priced, timely and reliable. Gary also fixed a panel in our bathroom which was accidentally drilled into, we’re all human. Gary took ownership and addressed the error and we now love the fixture even more than before. Highly recommend!! We will be using them for all our future homeownership handyman needs!"

"They do a thorough and complete job from quote, design to finish. They did a professional design layout which involved moving an interior wall and full bathroom reno. My house was a bit difficult in that it's old and new interior door frames wouldn't quite fit. They were creative in solving problems and running the options by me. Very responsive to texts and showed up when they said they would. I will use their services again!"

"He was cleaning up on his last job for the day before heading home. Came straight over; saw what I wanted and went right to work on it. Because of the framing it took a little forethought, but the job was performed to our satisfaction. He is a true handyman and we would highly recommend him."

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.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

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, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off.
