"Chad was very professional and such a breath of fresh air to work with. Communication was superb. He went above and beyond to ensure we were happy with his work and it was exactly what we wanted. We hired him to complete an accent wall. We wanted a board and batten with additional trim work to match other decorative moulding in our home so required making sure styles of moulding etc were cohesive as possible. He took the time to show us different ideas and possibilities for the area we were working on. Started the work exactly when we requested and completed the job very timely. Respectful of our home and when working out schedules. He kept the areas he was using clean and picked up while working and when the job was completed. We have other trim work we are going to be completing in our home and will use Chad again. His BID and final cost for project very fair and well priced."

"We are very happy with the work done by Mr. Handyman of N Kansas City. They power washed our home. We visited their office in Gladstone on a Monday and got an estimate and schedule for Wednesday the same morning. They showed up on time and did a great job. We highly recommend them."

"I hired this company to do deck repair not knowing whether it could be repaired or needed to be totally replaced. Nick and Joseph did an amazing job in blistering heat. Both very personable and willing to answer all my questions. The owner, Mark Kowertz, was very professional and gave me options/suggestions regarding condition of my deck and what could be saved and what needed to be replaced. Very reasonable in pricing. I have already recommended them to two other folks. You would not be wrong in giving them a call. I would highly recommend them."

"The guys were very nice to work with and knowledgeable. They power washed our deck and replaced some bad boards. They also recommend we replace the lattice with vinyl instead of wood which looks really good! After the wood weathered for a couple of months, they came back to stain it. They only sent one man to do the job which took all day and he missed a few spots that we had to go over and re-stain ourself. Otherwise, they did a good job!"

"Rick was fantastic. I called him late afternoon for a dryer repair that I've been putting off for a while I didnt need it fixed immediately and I was going out of town for the weekend. He didtn know that though, and I could tell by our conversation he would've came over as soon as he could. We set up a time for 5:00pm on the next monday, and he actually showed up 30 minutes early. He gave me a fair price and the dryer works just like new. I would definitely hire him again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

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.

Homeowners can increase the usefulness of their garage space in other ways, and one option is to extend the length of the garage by making it deeper. The process is similar to traditional garage extensions, but the end product is a garage with a different layout rather than additional parking spaces. 

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.
