"Julio is the most professional person I’ve worked with in 15 years! Honest, hard working, exceptionally skilled and willing to sacrifice to get your job done ASAP. Could not ask for, nor imagine a better person to work with. He installed a pocket door and it’s perfect. Left perfect amount of space for the surrounding drywall, and perfected all of the framing around the door. Perfect!!"

"These guys were able to give me an estimate right away and come get the work done soon after. They did many jobs for me from screening in my patio to flooring and more. All top notch work. I recommended them to friends and neighbors and will call them again in the future for any other work needed. I loved the fact that I could call 1 handyman and he was able to do everything. Saved me a lot of time and money."

"This is the third time we have used Chris for varied projects in our home from hanging pendant kitchen lights, building a closet and the latest project was the removal of a very large corner tub, redo the tile floor and restore and paint the walls. Not only does Chris do great work taking great measures to be very neat and clean but he also is spot on with his estimates. Thanks Chris for a job well done!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

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.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.
