"John was prompt on call back and appointment to give estimate.  He impressed us so much that we didn't  interview the other vendors we had lined up for estimates.
On time for job start-SKILLED CRAFTSMAN-attention to detail was amazing-neat-clean-respectful of our home
He's creative, takes a great deal of pride in his work and was a pleasure to work with.
His paint team, Karol & Alex have the same work ethic and skills-very professional, neat, clean and on time.
Would highly recommend BJ Trim Carpentry Inc.

"TERRIFIC!! Obet is a brilliant, intuitive handyman. That means, unlike me, he can repair, put together, ANYTHING! He is professional, respectful, prompt, and kind. I hired a shade vendor who did not measure ANYTHING correctly. Obet put all the shades and correct brackets where they 'should' have been. He never charges enough for his incredible and high-quality hard work. He repaired metal hinges on an Andersen screen door that an overzealous property manager swung open too far and bent. Obet Falcon is a SUPER handyman because I think he can repair or build Obet Falcon is an incredibly handyman because I believe he can repair or build anything! He’s like Superman! In the past five years, I’ve encountered the best quality and most honest businessman in Naples, and that’s Obet Falcon."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

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.
