"The guys did great work at a fair price. Once the weather finally cleared they were able to come and completed the brick work in one day. I had a question about part of the job possibly not being done. They came back out the week I called to confirm/take care of it. Everyone that I had contact with was knowledgeable, nice and responsive."

I've been honing my craft in the trades since I was old enough to swing a hammer... I always do my best to think outside of the box to problem solve issues and I like to think I'm pretty good at it too.\nI could do just about anything you would need a handyman to do... I've been framing houses and building stages for concerts since about 2015... For that reason my skills are a little too well rounded to specifically list off each and every one.

"We hired Steve to paint our living room, dining room, hallway, kitchen, and landing. He showed up on time on the date scheduled, and every day thereafter. The quality of his work was excellent. He was very conscientious and professional. Price was quite reasonable for the amount of work done. He is detail-oriented. We will definitely use Steve for any future painting projects."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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.
