"Outstanding results. It was so much more than expected! Donald and his crew just did an outstanding job on removing our old fence, building the new, custom fence and cleaning up afterward. He also made sure that our every concern was answered and taken care of! Thank you Donald and great crew! We couldn't be happier!"

"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."

"I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the excellent work you recently completed at my home. The new deck installation looks fantastic, and the quality of the boards/craftsmanship really stand out. It’s clear that great attention to detail was executed, and the final result exceeded my expectations. I also appreciate the thorough pressure washing done on the front of the house. It made a big difference, and really refreshed the exterior look of my home. Throughout the process, your team was professional, reliable, and easy to communicate with. Everything was completed on time and with care. I’m extremely satisfied with the work and would be happy to recommend your services to others. Thanks again!"

"I have been so impressed with this company’s work ethic, commitment to the customer and overall performance. I just can’t say enough good things. Our kitchen had water damage and has to be replaced. Although the project is not completed yet. I have faith that it is going to be the best it could be. De Wayne Lambert is a one of a kind contractor and will be doing more work for us after this project. He is fair, kind and considerate of the custome’s situation and tries very hard to keep their lives as normal as possible while they do the project. I feel blessed that we have him to do projects at our house. Pam and Winston Boggs"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
