"Was hired for many projects, painting was just one. Trim carpentry work was tedious, yet completed perfectly. I had a wide variety of contractors, therefore Papaâ s had to accommodate and work around many obstacles. My long list was completed on schedule, but most important to me is that any issues I found, no matter how small, were resolved promptly and without question."

"Philip and his crew upgraded our old porch that had old outdated Jalocy windows to modern all season windows along with a complete remodel making what had been a porch with very limited usage a room we can now use year round. We are more than happy with his work. Everything was done very professionally and exactly according to the timeline we were provided. We are now in the process of replacing the remaining windows in our home. Philip is once again doing a great job. I would highly recommend this company"

"Ralph, who owns Louisville Hardscape, is very honest, hardworking, committed to doing a great job, and sticks to his word. He and his staff (who are also very hardworking) levelled my paver patio where it sank, which was a lot of work. They did a great job and I am very pleased with their work. I would recommend them for any hardscape job!"

"Dave did a fantastic job installing two new toilets in my condo. He was very personable, professional, and easy to work with from start to finish. The installation was done efficiently, everything looks great, and he made sure everything was working perfectly before leaving. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable handyman."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.
