"Where do I even begin telling you about Tony and the wonderful work he does, the attention to detail, the cleanliness, the "going beyond the call" mentality? We had a water mark showing up on our family room ceiling that was gradually getting bigger and darker. With two bathrooms on the second floor right above the damage we were pretty sure what the problem was. We really didn't know of any contractors that would do this "small" of a job so I went searching. Stumbled across Midwest Remodel and Handyman in my search, saw some good reviews and that's when we were fortunate enough to have met Tony! He came right out and assessed the damage and within a day gave me a fair quote and an estimate of when he would be able to do the work. Hired!!! Then, before he even started this job for us, my mailbox post decided to crap out on us and was almost leaning in to the street. I called Tony just to see if by chance he could fix it for me. Again...he came right out and took care of the problem for me! Unbelievable! When the time came to actually do the work I initially hired him for, he was prompt, diligent, efficient, he cleans up after himself literally every day before he leaves, and I have to say that watching Tony and his helper Brandon work together is entertaining, to say the least! What a couple of great guys with a great sense of humor! And when all was said and done, he stuck to his quote, no overcharging and the work was impeccable. But here is a testimony to the true character of these guys...in the midst of all the repair work going on, my wife had a medical emergency. I had to go pick her up from work and leave her car in the parking lot where she left it as she was unable to drive. On day two of her hospitalization, these guys offered to take me to go get my wife's car so it didn't have to sit in the parking lot any longer. They did not have to do that but that's the kind of guys they are and I was incredibly grateful! Class act all the way! Best of all, we now have someone that we can trust and rely on to do things around the house for us that we just don't have the talent or skills to do ourselves! What a relief!!! We already have more things for him to do! This guy is so good, it didn't take long for our neighbors to catch on...he's doing work for them now too!"

"If I could give Ted 10 stars, I would. The team is professional and arrives when promised. Ted refinished our deck and it looks truly amazing. When other deck "companies" gave estimates, they only wanted to tear down and rebuild. Ted came the day after I requested an estimate, and gave us the hope we'd been looking for. He kept to his more than reasonable estimate, even after adding some beautiful touches we did not think of. He is an honest human being, and very respectful....so is his team! Very précised and meticulous work !!!!!!!"

"Wow, what a great experience I had with Nathan with NK Carpentry yesterday afternoon! He arrived early to power wash 7 large outdoor Polywood pieces of furniture and an outdoor rug that were heavily covered with nicotine stains. He is very professional, yet friendly and approachable. He verified what I wanted done and got right to work. He finished in just a little over 2 hours and got about 99% of the stains off of all of the furniture…they look brand new! And then he wound up the hose and hung it back up; laid out the furniture pieces in the sun so they’d dry and made sure I was satisfied with his work before I paid him with a check, shook hands and said goodbye. I’d hire him in a minute to do other work! He’s a young, very hard worker; efficient; cleans up when he’s finished with the job; had a very fair price and is determined to be a quality, successful businessman! I was extremely impressed!"

"We employed this company to tear down the original builders decking and replace it with composite decking and redesigned stairs.The workmanship was excellent. We subsequently had them build a storage shed underneath the deck. Cost estimates, planning & execution were very professional. The owner of the company is very willing to discuss alternatives to achieve an optimal outcome. The team are hard working and pay close attention to detail. We are very satisfied with the outcome."

"Derek was friendly and professional and his work was impeccable. He replaced my back patio door and my front door. He communicated with me during the process and got input when we needed a new doorknob because the old one no longer was a good fit. I would absolutely hire Derek again and really appreciated his work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

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.

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.
