"Steve arrived on time from Pennsylvania, even though the weather was very foggy that day. He analyzed the work to be done and I said the closest store for parts was Home Depot. I explained that Lowes installed the door in 2004. I took a picture and went to them first for repairs but they said they don't repair doors. However, they recommended Angie's List for a handy man and to use treated wood or PVC material for door framing. Steve returned with a door frame kit. He said the material was wood but seemed unsure if it was treated. He repaired the frame which took 4 and 1/4 hours and he allowed me to use a $25 coupon. The caulk had to dry before we could close the door. When dry, I tried to close and lock it with a key using my body weight to push hard but it would not close. I opened the main garage door and was able to pull hard and lock it from the inside. I called and he came back the next day. I was unsure if I was being charged $124 per hour for him to fix it correctly and I was honestly afraid to ask. He didn't say but either way I knew it had to be done. After two hours I told him I had to get back to work. I asked how long would he be? He told me he wanted to make sure it was done right and to my satisfaction. I told him to call me if he needed me and left him to finish. He already had my credit card info if needed and I asked my tenant to try the key in the lock when he was done. I came back on my lunchbreak a couple hours later. The frame was fixed, he cleaned up the area and he was gone. My tenant said the key worked great and there was no other charge."

"My son had begun to build a shed, but it was clear that he needed help and quickly. They found a guy to come out the NEXT day. Even better, he worked with my son and taught him how to do it properly. We felt like we got a sturdy good quality shed AND, lessons in carpentry as well!"

"Very courteous and professional staff at Home Genius. Was very reliable company. However the time frame of the install did fluctuate a bit. I’m glad to say I chose this company looking forward to getting more additional work with them."

"Great company. Locally owned. Chris (the owner) worked with me to design exactly what I needed. I was not sure on some aspects and he made suggestions which worked well for me. He also made suggestions to save me money. He ensured the build met local codes. And was receptive to changes I asked for along the way. Highly recommended. If you want a summer build book him early as he gets very busy."

"Steven DiMaggio responsed the my request within 24 hours. Set up a install date and was able to do the work before the scheduled time. Removed and replaced the old handrail in a two story row house. The steps are steep and the railing is from the second story to the first floor with a sharp turn. The work is beautiful. The carpenter was on time and skillful. We are very pleased with the work and the price was fair."

Customers say: Quick response

"This was actually a major remodel of a master suite that involved two baths, a walk-in closet, a hallway, moving walls, fixing roof leaks, heated tile floor, custom built showers, and more. Dave was wonderful to work with! He quoted out every last detail and never tried to give us false expectations. He was very conscientious about the quality of all phases of the job. Not only was his own work in carpentry, wall building, vanity installation and tiling excellent, but as our General Contractor he brought in a wonderful plumber, electrician, HVAC, and tile people and I am using them all again for various odd jobs as things come up with other parts of the house. Since our house is a somewhat neglected 30 year old home, we had expected to find all sorts of problems, but whatever we encountered, Dave made sure it was fixed right before the end of the project. We didn't have a plumb wall to start with, but by the time he finished all the demo and rebuild, the Master Suite never looked this good! The only other thing I can say is that this was the first time we had ever had any sort of remodel done and we started with a lot of custom built tile showers and odd tile and tried to coordinate Silestone countertops and sills from one place and tile from another and in the end the project took even longer than expected because it was hard to coordinate what needed to be done in what order or ordered when. When we have him do our last bathroom later this year, I will know to be a little bit more on top of that if I'm in a hurry, rather than expecting Dave to have everything scheduled with no wasted time. Specifically, I also did not realize that doors and baseboards would have to be stained, so I had them sitting in the garage for days before realizing that I could have been doing that so they'd be ready for when he needed to install them. That's probably more my inexperience than anything else. Dave was a pleasure to work with and he really seemed to care that everything was exactly where we wanted it, giving his expert advice if I was about to make a stupid decision (something for which I am very grateful since, as I mentioned, this was our first remodel ever) so we are very, very pleased with the result! His prices were below the average of all the estimates we received and yet the quality of the work and the results are outstanding! Nothing below average there! Also his estimate was spot on and there were no overages except when we changed or mind and added something. I would recommend him to anyone for any home project."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
