"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"I had some dry rot damage on the exterior boards between my windows on the front of my house due to gutters that I had ignored far too long. I contacted Bowen Construction and Robert came out right away inspected the damage, knew what needed to be done and gave me a reasonable estimate. He and his crew came out at the agreed upon date and time installed guards on the gutters and replaced all water damaged boards. It looks great and it’s nice to know it’s done. Also: they were good about keeping in touch with you as to their eta (mine was a 2 day job), they were good about cleaning up when they left and they stayed well within the estimate. I would definitely hire them again."

"Recently I noticed on my 24 hr surveillance camaras that a neighbor that is behind my house was letting their pit bull dog taking a dump in my back yard. My back yard is completely fenced in with the exception of one corner of the yard missing a section allowing this to happen. I found Sunrise Handyman on angi.com and got an immediate response from the owner Hung. He came out and gave me an estimate to install a 6' X 8' section of chain link fence to make my yard fully enclosed. The estimate he gave for all materials & labor was very reasonable & came out the very next day and installed this section of fence in less than 2 hrs time. The quality of both materials used & craftsmanship was excellent ! I highly recommend Sunrise Handyman to anyone needing home improvement repairs. I will certainly call on them again for any future work I may need."

"Brawny Builders was great on all accounts. They helped with the design of our project which included a new front entrance, large rear deck, a couple sections of fence and an outdoor shower. They had a competitive quote and we’re able to start quickly. Their crew was hard working, very courteous and customer focused. The project was completed within the agreed timeframe and slightly under budget. The best thing about working with Brawny Builders was their effectiveness in communicating with me about all phases of the project. We’ve worked with many contractors over our years and no one comes to Brawny Builders in their customer relations. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

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. 

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.
