"Barry was very professional and very easy to work with. He is very good about video communicating and keep to his time and day. He was very flexible as well. Prior to the day of the repair I thought of replacing the current door with a sliding door so I reached out to Barry to see if he could come out and take a look at it. He made the trip and accommodated the change. On the day of the service he showed up close to the time agreed on and did a great job. He left the place clean and tidy after he was done and the job looks great. Will definitely think of him for any future needs."

Have already requested quotes for other projects I need done. Made sure to clean up as the went and even fixed a gate that needed repaired at no cost. Will hire again"

"Rob Holder contacted me shortly after I made a request on Angi for handyman to install a TV wall mount. He asked the right questions, expressed his confidence, experience, and strong interest in doing the job, gave a competitive price, and was patient while I got a few more estimates. His enthusiasm and sincerity convinced me to hire him, and I was not disappointed, He arrived the next day, installed the mount and helped me with the rest of the TV installation and set up (even though the job quote just involved the wall mount and TV attachment). He was friendly, respectful, and made sure I had his contact info and we talked about future jobs that might come up. I would definitely hire him again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.
