"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."

Hello, I am able to handle all remodeling needs from framework to plumbing, to laying tile to repairing a door hinge. I believe in providing a fair price for both sides, and communicating with the homeowner to keep them up to date.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.
