"Derek at 207 Handyman was amazing through every step of the floor installation process. My home is older and provided several challenges to the installation process which Derek was able to navigate efficiently and effectively. He is professional and skilled at his craft! My flooring came out even better than I imagined! I am THRILLED with my new flooring and will be hiring 207 Handyman for all of my future home renovations. I highly recommend 207 Handyman for anyone looking for home renovation services!"

B's Painting & Construction brings an unmatched commitment to excellence to your home improvement project. We have over 10 years experience delivering unsurpassed professionalism, expertise, and value. We take pride in providing our customers with personalized customer service, the highest industry standards, and top-quality workmanship. Give us a call today.

"We hired B's because he said he had a lifetime of experience doing kitchen renovations. He appeared to be knowledgable. But then he kept pulling his 'project lead' from our kitchen/bathroom renovation for other jobs and did not prioritize us. The plumber left uncompleted work after paying thousands of dollars. B purchased expensive equipment from our second payment instead of putting our money toward the project, which resulted in him not being fiscally capable of completing the work. What was supposed to be a 3-4 week renovation in May became multiple months and unsatisfactory result. He then asked for final payment before completion, threatened to sue, and acted unprofessionally when we put our foot down. He also charged a very expensive price compared to other contractors in the area. Photos show the state of the project when final payment was asked for."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.
