"It is a pleasure to write a very positive review of the work done for me by Darko from Handyman Pros, based in Mundelein, IL. I engaged Handyman Pros to do 3 home maintenance jobs: repairing the attachment of some faux window shutters to the brickwork on the front of my house, repairing the portico around the front door, and repairing and repainting some partially rotted basement windows. Darko has an excellent knowledge of the way houses are constructed and how to repair them, as well as the wide variety of modern glues, caulks, paints and so forth that can be used to effect these repairs. He is also very personable and works hard. He has excellent carpentry and painting skills. On the last job, he put in a solid 12 hour day from 8 am to 8 pm to get the work completed in one day. Handyman Pros is an excellent resource for the homeowner. Highly recommended."

"It went great. The posts had to be tied into some angular non-traditional stairs. I could not figure out the cut, and I never did railings before so I decided I needed a professional. It was a small job only 3 steps but important and detailed. I had difficulty finding someone who wanted to take it on. Mike was very willing and confident he could do it. I was confident in Mike also, and was not even home when he was doing most of the work. Mike kept me informed with photos throughout the project. Final result looks great and is nice and strong. I highly recommend."

"Excellent professional work and managed to use existing structures to cut costs. Carpentry work was master level and cleaned up very well and communication was first rate. In general lumber costs are high but the finished deck they did for my back deck is well worth the investment and will be enjoyed for years to come!"

"Tom and his crew did a lot more than just paint my new townhome. They installed new lighting, toilets, faucets, and more. Tom and Tracy are communicative, professional, honest, skilled, and flexible. I also thought their pricing was fair given the work they did. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to others!"

"We purchased an older home and after living in it for a couple of months discovered a few issues in the attic and on the outside of the house that needed to be addressed. We also wanted to add additional interior lighting in three bedrooms and replace light fixtures on the outside of the home. Jeremy, from Grandview Construction, professionally addressed all our concerns regarding the necessary repairs to the house. He gave us an honest opinion on what needed to be handled and what steps needed to be taken to correct the issues. Because of Jeremyâ s home construction knowledge and carpentry skills, we were able to address the issues with the house along with making the improvements we were looking for at the same time. After working with Grandview Construction, on our house, I can say with full confidence that I would recommend their services. Grandview showed honesty, integrity, and professionalism in their work. Plus, the improvements they completed to our house turned out fantastic."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.
