Hello!\nI'm Bryan and I'm a homeowner myself. In my 24 years of homeownership, I have learned a lot of skills to fix, build and repair around the house. I'm happy to help. \nI am a man of character though, and prefer not to be alone with a woman as to avoid anything that could look bad or be misunderstood. I appreciate your respect on this and hope to be able to help you with your project!
"Michael made a beautiful built-in wine rack and shelves in my kitchen island, He matched the existing wood-work perfectly! You can't tell where the existing cabinets stop and his work starts. He also made the wine rack so it could be easily removed for access to the island sink plumbing. His attention to detail is phenomenal! He also installed a floor and very large shelves in the space above my garage. He added a pull-down staircase for easy access. The extra storage space was wonderful!"
"They were really great. I felt like they worked really hard to find what I needed and to get me a good deal. They were quick and honest and kind. I hate the workers that treat you like you are stupid and they try to rip you off and both Vadim and Alex were the complete opposite. I am recommending them to all of my friends. Makita"
"I never contacted the provider or used this service in anyway. I have to write this review so that the request to write this review stops popping up. The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit. "
No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.
On average, the cost to hire a carpenter ranges from about $75 to $100 per hour, depending on the type of carpentry, location, size of the job, and skill level of the carpenter. Get quotes from at least three carpenters in your area to determine the best price for your specific project.
Homeowners insurance may cover damaged floor joists, depending on your policy. Insurance typically covers issues from storms, fires, or water damage from burst pipes. However, don't expect your insurance company to cover damage from wear and tear, poor maintenance, or termites.
