"We had the trim done throughout our downstairs, and I honestly can?t believe what a difference it made. They were so easy to work with professional, respectful of our home, and knocked everything out much quicker than I expected. They really listened to what I wanted, paid attention to the little details, and the finished product turned out even better than I had pictured. It completely transformed the space and made our downstairs feel so much more finished and put together. If you?re thinking about having trim work done, I can?t recommend them enough. We?re so happy with how everything turned out!"

"I can’t recommend Chad highly enough. He’s done several projects for me so far: replacing my exterior French door frame with brick molding, installing a new interior window sill, and adding drip edge/smart siding trim around the exterior of the house. Every job was done with care, skill, and attention to detail. He communicated clearly the whole way through, explained what needed to be done, and made sure I understood the plan before he got started. And he left everything clean when the work was finished, which says a lot about his professionalism. Beyond doing great work, he’s just a great person. Honest, dependable, and someone I fully trust in my home. I’ll absolutely be hiring him again for future projects."

"Johnny from Mr. Handyman came out to give an estimate on adjusting our front door frame. After looking it over, he said he had the time to complete the job then and got everything fixed up in a very short time. He was great to deal with, and the work was just what we needed."

Work was done in a timely manner, work was very well done. I highly recommend CPR to anyone needing projects done well and priced fairly. Will hire Matthew again."

"I contacted Decker because we had some staining of ceilings in several rooms due to a roof leak. Jason did an excellent job repairing and painting the ceilings and walls. He was easy to work with. I also had the outside of the house painted. Juan and his crew did an excellent job, also. They paid attention to detail and were also easy to work with."

"David and his crew provided excellent service. They created a gravel pad for a storage shed and it looks amazing. They were reasonably priced and completed the work within 24 hours once the bid was accepted. I will definitely use Four Seasons for future projects."

"We had a full fence and deck built. It was a fairly big job. The number one thing that impressed me was that they showed up. We had appoints from 3 companies for bids and the other two never showed up or called, 3 other companies never even bothered to return a call. Once we agreed, thatâ d started the project in a couple days. We had a few bumps along the way with communication on what we wanted done but we are very happy with the final project."

"VP Roofing and Construction did an outstanding job. From the quick response to review what work was requested. Providing a very competitive bid, getting the work scheduled and completed. The crew they put on my project worked very hard and we're very particular in the construction. They installed it as if it was on their own home. VP's crew took out the old porch and cleaned up the area and installed the new porch in 2 days. The one they installed is incredibly solid. The job included working over an old concrete porch that proved difficult at times. The crews leader was very particular in the details. Several times he didnt like the way something was coming together so he would stop and take things apart to make sure they were installing the best fitting/looking and solid porch they could build. They didnt take shortcuts at all. I am extremely pleased with the looks/style and solidly built porch. It makes the front of my house much more appealing. I would recommend VP to anyone!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.

Your local building code will list all the framing requirements for whatever type of structure you're building. Most exterior walls require spacing of 16 inches on-center, while many non-load-bearing interior walls only require 24 inches of spacing. However, there are also varying requirements depending on your construction material, so checking your municipality's rules is essential.

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.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.
