"Adam is a trustworthy and dedicated professional. He takes great pride in his work and his project management exceeds expectations. I hired him again to build multi projects in our new home in the city. He had done a superb job when I've referred him to other homeowners as well."

"Mr. Handyman of Canton and Woodstock has provided me with literally thousands of dollars of work over the last couple of months, ranging from cabinet building/repairing, painting, plumbing (removing and installing new vanities in bathrooms), drywall repair, installing new light fixtures, carpentry work (cutting and installing wainscoting/judges panels), and even installing suspended storage racks in my garage. The quality of their work is outstanding, with the form, fit and finish at the highest level. For that reason, I keep going back to them over and over again to complete my next list of "honey-do" projects. I am particularly impressed with Rick Grooms, whose skills and experience across all the "trades" are at the craftsman level. Moreover, Rick is a pleasure to work with in that he has a very pleasant and warm personality, a professional attitude, and a customer-focused desire to please his clients. I would very strongly recommend Mr. Handyman of Canton and Woodstock!"

"Brothers Contracting and Landscaping is FABULOUS to work with! They tore out our old, unsafe deck and replaced it with one twice the size and much, much sturdier. The also replaced our worn out front porch and shed doors and built completely new doors, as well as remodeling our damaged floor in our master bathroom and installing new fabulous flooring. They accomplished all this in about 3 1/2 weeks! On time, on budget, and with EXCELLENT workmanship. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BROTHERS!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.
