Customers say: Quality work

"Wilson is a skilled craftsman who has rescued so many of my fine antique pieces over the last 15 years. He is extremely talented and very easy to work with. I have given him broken, stained, desiccated and otherwise damaged wooden items that he has restored to their original beauty. I find his prices quite moderate and his work exceptional."

"If you are looking for an affordable contractor who does amazing work, look no further! The owner Rab and his team do excellent work. They replaced my front porch and deck. Excellent job!!! I would use them again and highly recommend. Roberto is very friendly, courteous, and works hard to get the job done right and on time. He worked as if this was his own home. He has great ideas and provided me with alternatives along the way. His ideas were on point and the design tweaks added that finishing touch I was looking for. Elegant yet functional. Do your homework and always get at least the quotes. If A Pair of Hands Contracting is on your list, I promise you'll see the difference."

"The installers of my front steps and railings did an excellent, excellent job. They worked with precision to make sure their installations were correct and measurements were accurate. They did an excellent job cleaning up once they were finished. I plan to use them again in the future."

"It went spectacularly well! Lori Parisi, the designer, met with us, listened to our needs, suggested certain closet organization configurations and gave us our choices for types of materials. She designed a plan which was in keeping with our needs and our pocketbook. The installer, Eric, came on time, worked conscientiously and efficiently and got it all done in a timely way with no problems. He cleaned up after his work, and was kind enough to cart away the old materials."

"My kitchen floor is absolutely stunning, he was very professional and kept his word with moving quickly. I had bad experiences in the past with unfinished work by other contractors, but this was by far great work and I’m very pleased with the finished look. Definitely will be getting my bathroom next."

"

Everything went very smoothly.

Each person involved with the process knew what he was doing: the salesman, the man who measured and made the template, the fabricator and the installer. They were all very professional, attentive to detail and punctual. The entire process was very streamlined and easy. It looks beautiful.


They also did my daughter's kitchen counters and sink a few years ago and her project came out beautiful as well.

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Floor joists provide support and stability to the flooring installed above them, whether it be hardwood, tile, or carpet. They’re essentially horizontal beams that hold up the subfloor and everything that lies on top of it. Floor joists also help evenly distribute weight across their structure so that it’s shared between walls, beams, and your foundation.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

A contract should outline the scope of work, timelines, costs, payment schedule, and materials used for clarity and protection.
