Your Overall General Home Repairs and Maintenance needs. Everything from Furniture Repair, Home maintenance, Bathroom Renovations, Deck & Porch Repairs, Custom Patios, Walkways etc... I take pride in providing Quality work for a fair price. I started this business by just doing jobs for friends and word of mouth. I believe in treating every project as if it was my own home. I really enjoy meeting new people and helping to solve their needs. What sets me apart from others, is that I take pride in being honest and coming up with creative solutions if possible. I'm not going to upsell you just to make more money. Not everything needs to be rebuilt or replaced. Sometimes it just needs some TLC. I have officially been doing handyman work since 2017, but have been doing general home maintenance and construction my entire life.

"Tony did an amazing job! He repaired and painted 3 arbors, replaced all of the rotted wood in our gazebo (which was most of the gazebo) and painted it. Built stairs, Installed wrought iron hand rails and stained deck. Built and installed a step in our garage and installed handrails to the basement. Assembled patio furniture. Installed a storm door. But, even more impressive, he looked at a completely rotted out garden bench that I absolutely loved and was able to totally duplicate it, incorporating the antique wrought iron that was in the original. What an amazing carpenter and overall handyman!!!! We are very impressed with his work and great attitude and look forward to working with him in future home improvement jobs. Thank you!!!!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Depending on your carport's configuration, foundation or slab condition, and location in relation to the house, turning a carport into a garage has a lot in common with adding an addition to your home. However, you can skip some of the necessities of adding living space to your home, such as fine flooring, trim work, or even drywall or HVAC. It might be possible to DIY the conversion, but it’s complicated and potentially dangerous work, so it’s best left to the professionals.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.
