"Tim (owner) was great to work with—professional, responsive, and very kind throughout the entire process. Jeff, the handyman who handled our plumbing, electrical, and general contractor work, was also fantastic. He was knowledgeable, easy to work with, and did excellent work. We’re very happy with the service and will definitely use them again in the future. Pricing was fair and much lower than other quotes. Highly recommend!"
"Jacob helped us to install a kitchen vent hood in October 2017. The job involves drilling through an eight-inch round hole through a brick wall, and because of the location of the stove underneath the hood, the hole needs to go through a stud, which is weight-bearing in an exterior wall. Prior to hiring Jacob, I have contacted two other contractors. One ultimately declined the job after an initial walkthrough, citing reasons that the hood is commercial-grade and they simply could not do it (despite promising an easy job during the initial walkthrough and measurement). The other from a named company proposed a solution that did not involve reinforcing the stud (and joked about the house is not going to falling down because of lack of support of one stud). Jacobs solution included the reinforcement of the stud, and the quote was quite reasonable, and that's why we decided to enlist his help. He has not only built an entire frame around the shortened-stud (with headers, and multiple sister studs), but also fastened the 80-lbs vent hood to the top as well as to the back of the wall. Its so sturdy that that he put his entire weight on it, and the hood wont budge. He also helped with drywall and electric outlet installation. We are extremely happy with the quality of work, and his overall attitude in the project. Well definitely consider his service for future handyman projects."

"Bryan completed a partial kitchen remodel in our 155-year-old house, and my wife and I are very pleased with the results, and with the entire process. As an architect, I know from experience that it's incredibly difficult to find a contractor who has fair prices, does quality work, communicates clearly, AND works with subcontractors who are equally capable and professional. Thankfully we found that person in Bryan. We would gladly hire him again (in fact, we've already hired him for additional work!) and would absolutely recommend him to others."
Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts
You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.
Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.
You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.
If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.
Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.
