"Osmans Carpentry is excellent. Val came to the site and gave a very fair estimate of the work and the price. Communication is excellent. Flo is a very talented carpenter and installed a new 16 foot wood banister to the lower level. He also repaired a number of the stair balusters, fixing them in position very nicely. Super efficient worker who is very talented. Would hire them again without hesitation."

"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."

"We used Eric and his team to give our house a complete face-lift...new kitchen, new bathrooms, wood floors, new doors, window framing, painting, can lights...I'm sure there is more that I am forgetting. They did AMAZING work! Eric and his guys are professional, the communication was great, the finishing touches elite, and the job was finished on the date he said it would be done (which is unheard of). I recommend Eric to all of my friends and I will continue to use him for projects that come up in our house."

"Kevin and his team were wonderful. They were punctual, courteous, and very neat about clean up. He framed 5 windows and they all look crisp and bright. A+ on a thorough job which he stayed late to finish in just one day."

"If you ever need a carpenter to make your dream project come to life, hire Larson Custom Finishing. Joe was extremely collaborative with helping us plan the design for our fireplace mantel and built in shelving. During installation they were polite and efficient - leaving our family room cleaner than they found it. We will DEFINATELY be using Larson for future projects."

"I found these gentlemen working on a neighbor's deck... Called them over, explained what I needed done.They gave me an estimate. Came and did the work relatively quick and efficient.. it would have been done sooner but the weather was not participating... But we did not have a problem with them coming back. They were extremely thorough and courteous and attention to detail was phenomenal... If we had questions they were relatively quick to get back to us with answers... I highly recommend this company. They were a pleasure to do business with. I would highly recommend them !!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

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. 

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.
