"I hired Jesus and his team to do some framing and drywall in my unfinished basement. He framed around the duct work and installed drywall ceiling and drywall at stairwell. Jesus did an excellent job. He gave a competitive bid and has been pleasant to work with. No problems. I highly recommend him and I would hire him again if I decide to have more work done on my basement."

"Great experience! Showed up on time, worked hard, well organized, friendly, accommodating, and no surprises on the fee. The emptied out my entire garage(complete mess without any available space), built three heavy duty racks, and then returned everything in an organized fashion. It's like a whole new garage. It sounds like a simple job but it definitely was not."

"Donald and his crew did an excellent job replacing our wooden residential fence. He handled the demo, the clean up, and the build in just a couple of days (they even worked in the freezing cold!) His communication was excellent and when he and his crew finished the job, they left no mess behind. I definitely recommend this crew!"

"I would definitely recommend Mr. Handyman for any job. You had around the house that you could not handle the 2 technicians who came out and worked on the project that I had were very professional of. J.R. was especially attentive to my needs. He explained what he was doing why he was doing it and whether or not I wanted it done. And I really appreciated the fact that he took the time to explain what he was doing to me and. Why it was in his main opinion, the best course to take. I am going to use them again for another project and I am very, very satisfied."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

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.

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.
