"Marcia was our designer, and she was wonderful to work with! Professional from the start, flexible, and always receptive and responsive. The installers were great as well, always arriving within the designated window. They were also professional and friendly! We can't wait to do our pantry and nursery closet! We will definitely be using Closet OS again! Thank you for transforming our rooms and giving us great storage space!"

"I have nothing but good things to say about the weekend repair man. He communicated well. He came when he said he would come. When he was here and doing the jobs he was knowledgeable and answered all of my questions and his rates are very reasonable. I would definitely hire him again."

"Luke assessed the situation and we discussed a few solutions and then we both agreed on the best course of action. He obtained the necessary materials and did the temporary fix until I contact him again in the Spring to finalize the project. Very satisfied with his demeanor and efficiency in tackling the job at hand. I highly recommend Luke for any of your handy work that you may have."

His crew was also great They came out the first and did the demo work and did the framing for the new work. the second day they poured the concrete and finished the job. They also did a great job cleaning up and left the job site looking great. You will in no way be disappointed if you hire these guys. Great job Mario."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

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

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.
