"My wife and I are new to Florida and we bought a home here. We hired Mohammed as a handyman. He was AMAZING! We had him install three ceiling fans to start. All the fans hang & work great and the blinds are straight. After this we asked him to hang some blinds that didn?t quite fit the window? he cut them perfectly and hung them! Later he noticed me struggling to hang a shower rod and he knocked it out for me. We also asked him to put up a mailbox in our yard, install a Ring doorbell, put together a queen size guest bed and finally assemble a living room tv stand. He worked quickly and diligently at all tasks. We are blessed to have received his help. Mohammed gets our highest rating for knowledge, job execution and price!!! -Denver & Maggie"

"Gary came to the rescue in a closet disaster. One of the closet rod supports had broken and pulled out of the wall in the main bedroom, threatening to dump the entre closet’s contents on the floor. The only place available to put the closet contents was on my beed which was needed for sleeping. Gary quickly made emergency repairs to hold the rod up for the weekend and was here bright and early Monday with the materials to make the fix permanent. I am confident that the rod supports will never give way again. His carpentry skills and painting skills are excellent. The finished product always looks very good and the manages to do any job without creating a mess. He cleans up what little dust and debris he makes and always leaves everything better than he found them."

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.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

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.

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.
