"Fred and his crew quickly and efficiently did all my window trim and sills through out my home. They handled tricky door frame and rounded windows artfully Fred offered advice where necessary, which I appreciated because he has the wisdom to know how the finished look would be. My husband was impressed and we hired them to finish my crown molding next week. I feel lucky to find a good Carpenter With a very respectful crew. We highly recommend them."

"Excellent work, done efficiently and reasonably priced. He created a new master closet and, despite his current workload, made time to get the job done for us. He is a highly knowledgeable, professional, and personable guy, who doesn't just do a job, but makes certain it meets his own high standards. I highly recommend Matt as a go-to person when you need carpentry/handyman services!"

"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!!"

"Our home had a variety of about 8 projects that needed help. We were lucky to learn about Handyman by Henderson. Promptly came and looked at all the projects which ranged from getting old satellite dish off 2 story wood house to new linen closet shelves to new outside light on high outside pole to finishing baseboards and more. The workmanship was excellent!! We have a new list in the works."

"Scott did a phenomenal job repairing my pocket door. He had to put on new hardware and remove part of my door frame to re-install it. I had just had the frame painted a week ago, so Scott very carefully removed the frame so as not to damage the wood, put the door back in, and the frame back together. Then. he calked it AND repainted it - you can’t even tell he did the repair! My pocket door works beautifully and my door frame looks perfect! Scott is not only a skilled professional; he’s a polite, respectful, nice guy to boot! I highly recommend him!"

"I highly recommend Jack O' Trades. The work was completed on time and on budget. Logan stayed in constant contact with me and responded quickly to all my questions. Brian did amazing work. The screened enclosure turned out better than I hoped. Very professional. Quality workmanship!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.
