"Dizzle Pro absolutely crushed our deck build. From the very beginning, his responsiveness was unmatched—quick replies, clear timelines, and constant communication throughout the entire process. You always knew exactly what was going on, which is rare these days. The craftsmanship speaks for itself. The attention to detail and overall quality is top-tier, and it’s obvious he takes a lot of pride in his work. Everything was done right the first time, and the finished product exceeded expectations. If you’re in Southern Maine and looking for someone reliable, professional, and truly the best at what they do, Dizzle Pro is the guy. Highly recommend."

"Rick completed several home improvement projects in our home and I was very impressed with his meticulous craftsmanship and quality of work - even better than I was expecting, and at a rate that was reasonable. Rick is not only knowledgeable, friendly and professional but has the experience and skills to get the job done. There were several things in which he went the extra mile to make sure the end result was visually pleasing. Great communication from beginning to end. I liked that I was kept informed of the progress, since I had asked him to do so many various jobs. I highly recommend Rick for your home improvement or repair needs. I will definitely contact him again when needed."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

For a professional carpenter, installing a window seat can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days, depending on some aspects of the project. Aside from building the seat itself, if they have to remove any cabinets, shelves, or baseboards, that will add time to the project.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

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. 

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

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.
