"My wooden privacy fence was not installed correctly. About a week after installation a portion of the fence began leaning forward and several of the boards begin buckling at the bottom. The fence was installed on September 2, 2021, and I contacted the owner on September 10, 2021. He responded back and said he would be there on the 13th and did not show. I receive a text from the owner on September 15, 2021, stating he had not forgotten he was going to wait until everything dries up before coming back out. I contacted the owner back again on October 21, 2021, and have not received a response. I also contacted the owner today which is November 15, 2021, and I still have not received a response back. I would not recommend Bordelons Home Repair because he did not install my fence correctly by not using enough boards to support the wooden fence and he does not stand behind his work."

I started this company so that I could offer the community quality work for a reasonable price. I don't charge by the hour but by the job and don't hire labor hands but work with professionals from different trades who take pride in their work

I like to dabble in a little bit of everything wood related. I do a lot of pallet wood projects. I love using old barn wood and tin for a rustic look. Every project I have ever done is purely out of passion. I like to please my customers by completely exceeding their expectations.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

Costs depend on carport size, wood type, complexity of design, and labor for custom features. They typically start at $3,000 and extend beyond concrete thresholds.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

You can use a nail to find ceiling joists, but it’s not as reliable as a stud finder, and you’ll end up with lots of small holes in your ceiling. If the nail hits a joist, you'll feel increased resistance. Mark the spot with a pencil. Repeat this process regularly along the ceiling, 16 or 24 inches apart, until you've mapped out the joist locations.
