"Brad with Deck It Out did an awesome job with our massive basement remodel (complete with family room, fireplace, work out area, and full bath). We also had him do a job installing spray foam insulation above our garage to correct a heating/cooling issue we were having in a room above it. He was on time, answered all of our questions professionally, easy to get in contact with, and his customer service was amazing.The quality of his work is outstanding, we are very happy with everything he did for us. We are planning to have our deck redone in the future and there's no one else to even consider for the job. Brad's the best contractor we've worked with."

"I had hired Deck and Shed Pros to build a new deck with a screen and I am thrilled with the outcome. My new deck is gorgeous! Their customer service is excellent and the quality of work is outstanding. It was a pleasure working with Jim (owner) and Simon (master carpenter and craftsman). I highly recommend this company."

Love the "one stop shopping" expertise he provides. Recommend him without hesitation."

"LeonPro Services is simply outstanding. Otar is a perfectionist and his work shows it. I asked him to repair the tongue and groove flooring and parts of the railing on a large wrap around porch His carpentry skills were truly excellent. He pressured washed, sanded and cleaned it, followed by a meticulous staining job. This entire porch, a central feature of my century old house, looks better than the day it was built and painted 25 years ago. He also did an excellent job repairing a split rail fence surrounding my ¾ acre property. I will hire him again without hesitation for any future work."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

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.
