"Flo arrived on time as scheduled for the project. All necessary supplies were on hand. He and his associate worked smoothly together. The project consisted of replacing 11 steps and risers and all stair trim. Flo completed the carpentry part in one day. His painters came the next day and applied 2 coats of paint. The porch looks great. The project price was fair and competitive. Not only are we 100% satisfied with Osman Carpentry, but we are scheduled to have them complete another 3 projects for us and probably a 4th project after that. You will be glad you hired them. It was a pleasure doing business with them."

"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."

"I can't recommend these guys enough. During a time when it felt like it was impossible to find good help, Overall Builders came through. They got a great carpenter out who framed up a new interior doorway in a hall and installed the jamb and door. I've used them in the past and will do so again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.

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

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

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.
