We’re All About YOU, The Customer. In 1980, Home360 was started as a division of the old Perkins Road Hardware store located near the LSU Campus and the Garden District. The business was created to satisfy years of frequent requests from Perkins Road Hardware customers to perform various remodeling and repair projects for their homes, or to installed products purchased from the store. The company was organized and set-up as a franchisor and started with just two craftsmen. Home360 has expanded to be one of the most respected local providers for air conditioning service and repair, roofing repair, general carpentry, plumbing, electrical services, painting and drywall, appliance repair, locksmithing and glasswork or glass replacement in the greater Baton Rouge area.

"I had Tim Albert at the house today for a stove problem. He fixed the problem quickly and to my satisfaction. We have used Tim before and always found him professional and honest. We request him by name when we have an appliance issue."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The best way to know if your beams still provide adequate support is to consult a structural engineer. Structural beams can crack and even sag over time but may still be structurally sound. Keep an eye out for signs of issues in your home, such as sagging floors or ceilings, major cracks in your ceiling and walls, or signs of water damage around a weight-bearing wall.

Generally completed within a couple of hours, depending on damage extent.

If nail pops in your drywall aren't fixed, there can be consequences to the structure of your home and the aesthetics of the room. Nail pops may loosen or weaken drywall and may be less effective at providing support and insulation, ultimately requiring more extensive repairs or replacement in the future. If not fixed, the blemish will become increasingly unsightly over time, potentially leading to further damage as raised areas easily catch on objects or clothing. 

Yes, you can hammer a nail into a wall stud. But before you do, it’s important to confirm that you’re actually nailing into a stud—and not wiring, pipes, or ductwork. To check, find a few more studs in the wall, then measure to make sure they’re either 16 or 24 inches apart.

Yes, joists are considered structural, as they support the flooring or roofing above them and help distribute the load to the beams, which, in turn, distribute that load to weight-bearing walls or foundational supports directly below them. Joists not only help distribute the load evenly to your beams, but they also provide direct support to the subfloor in flooring systems, which helps reduce creaking and the risk of uneven flooring.
