I've done handyman work for 10 years. I started doing this work full time at the beginning of 2022. I have experience in building decks, steps and other wood working projects. I am able to do hardwood, and tile flooring. I've done bathroom remodeling and and room remodeling. I can pressure wash houses and driveways. I work with several landlords on maintaining their rental properties. I have a background of 15 plus years in minor electrical. I am self employed and looking to grow my business. I do not do plumbing, roofing, or A/C.

"Building a gazebo for the backyard Chris was on time and efficient. Job was exactly what I needed done. Fair pricing and good quality work. I would recommend him again"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

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

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.
