Devin is committed to excellence in every aspect of our business. My family and I recently relocated from the Chicagoland area to Northwest Georgia; with over a decade of carpentry, light plumbing and light electrical experience. The majority of my work is helping homeowners complete small projects and tasks inside the home. I find the most satisfaction helping busy families, those wishing to improve their homes but lacking the skillset to do most tasks, and those with physical challenges that just need a hand getting things done. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty, and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"Devin has completed three different projects including installing grab bars in the shower and hanging a barn door. His work is first quality and is professional in every regard. If you need a carpenter or handyman I strongly suggest you contact Devin."

Looking for a stair company that can sell you quality parts at wholesale prices, provide quality installations, and handle the staining and painting. Well, you've found it. At Southeastern Stair Company, we can even install flooring on landings and connecting hallways, so you only have one professional contractor to deal with. Don't hire a company and meet the salesmen, then have a crew of riff raffs do the installation. Hire real craftsmen who take pride in their work. We have been in business since 2007. We're licensed for stairwork and fully insured with general liability and workers compensation. With over 70- 5 star reviews, you know you're getting quality work with Southeastern Stair Company.

"Attention to detail was top priority. He took the time to ensure that every aspect of the job was done to perfection. There is no one else that I would use for my staircase and stair needs. He will be doing my next set of stairs and I know that they will be a true masterpiece. "

"I hired this company in April 2024 to remodel two bathrooms and the team did ok job but just after two months, I am seeing the leakage from Tub. My friend who used this company has similar issue. When I contacted Isai (Aza), he did not return my multiple calls and I will have to resort to legal action. PLEASE BE CAREFUL with this company."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can use a nail to find ceiling joists, but it’s not as reliable as a stud finder, and you’ll end up with lots of small holes in your ceiling. If the nail hits a joist, you'll feel increased resistance. Mark the spot with a pencil. Repeat this process regularly along the ceiling, 16 or 24 inches apart, until you've mapped out the joist locations.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

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.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.

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.
