"This is the second home that I have hired Phillip, and his team with North Shore Painting & Home Improvement, to paint the entire exterior of. Phillip has also assisted me with various repairs on these homes including: window repair, decking repair, waterproofing and pressure washing. Phillip has delivered with each experience and is a trusted resource for me. I have referred his company to multiple others and would be happy to work with him again on future needs. Very professional and dedicated team."

"Bill was professional and highly competent from our first texts to the job finish. He did a smaller job for me yet one which required skill as he was drilling through ceramic tile. He can also build custom furniture and just designed and built a hosting stand for a new high restaurant."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

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.

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.
