"This experience was extraordinary from initial contact to completion. The weather related adjustments were communicated in a timely manner. The work itself was flawless. If I'd known it'd be such a painless and smooth process I wouldn't have procrastinated. I have only high praise for HomExpert Contractor and owner Mauricio Flavio."

"We hired Parker Deck and Fence to fix an old deck. From initial communication, to the completion of the project my wife and I were very pleased. They were professional, efficient, and communicated often throughout the project. The deck looks great and we would highly recommend! The price was fair and their work is top notch. Thank you!"

"Our pro, Fred, worked around the inclement weather to tear down an old deck and build a beautiful, structurally sound replacement. He provided great customer service along with an extensive knowledge of deck building. He also went above and beyond in communicating the steps of the process and listened closely for feedback. My family and I look forward to using his services for future home improvements."

"Tim did a good job. The garage door frame replacement and siding replacement both look good. He also reconnected the drooping sides of the porch roof where cracking had occurred, taped and plastered over that to create a more firm connection."

"MH Contracting is my number one choice for any type of plumbing work. First, their Veteran owned and that means a lot! Equally important is that they perform the highest quality work. They're, organized, responsive, respectful, professional, courteous, get the work completed the first time and they clean up after themselves. They truly take care of the customer. I first met them through a general contractor who signed on to do a large remodel project for me that included the complete rearranging of all second floor plumbing. They were impressive during the remodel and because of that, I've used them for all my plumbing work ever since! They're fantastic and won't disappoint!"

"We hired Sutter Home Solutions to build a deck for our house. We were blown away by their professionalism, customer service, quality of work and affordability. This is a small, family operated business and working directly with the person/people who are doing the work is a huge plus. We couldn t be happier and will never look elsewhere for any future home improvement needs."

"They completed our large deck project in just 4 days and $6K under the next lowest quote. Overall I was pleased with their work, but they did miss a couple loose sections of railing and we have already noticed a couple boards popping out of place a few months later. They missed a few things, but for the price and fast turnaround, I?m pleased with the work."

"I needed them to repair a column on my front porch along with railing and they did a great job. The owner does a great job of keeping in contact with you and he explains things so that you understand "the why" behind what he's doing. I'll definitely use him again in the future."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

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.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

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.
