"Very pleased with the work and look. Very satisfied overall. The estimator and supervisor Alex was very attentive, prompt and willing to answer any and all questions I had. The two carpenters in particular who did the majority of the work were excellent. Only complaint is minor as perhaps they could have cleaned up better when work was finished as we found many plastic labels that came off the ends of the new deck boards as well as a few random nails. Again a very minor complaint."

"Hire this man already. I have had so many nightmare stories dealing with other so called handymen but Allen really knows his stuff. He did the jobs as requested didn't waste time was very friendly, efficient, and tidy. I read a lot of the reviews on here prior to hiring him and I will say I read a few saying something about him being pricey so that did make me nervous. I will say the people writing that probably haven't had quality work done very recently because his prices are very fair for the work he does. I"

"Chris Miller came to my home and provided an estimate for cleaning and staining my deck.  He helped me explore options, like removing the remnants of a mostly-removed layer of surface stain that a previous owner had put on and partially taken off, matching the color of the remaining stain so as to save money by avoiding the expense of removal, etc.  He also advised me about what was realistic for treatment of the concrete patio below the deck.  Chris was knowledgeable and helpful.  He didn't pressure me to do anything more expensive than necessary, in fact encouraged me that we could try to match the remaining stain and if necessary do the removal and update the stain treatment later on.  He offered to include treatment of the portion of the concrete patio that most needed it at a reduced price as part of the job.  The price he quoted was fair, I believe, though it turned out to be higher than I can afford at the moment, given the press of some other expenses I'm facing, so I did not have them do the work.  If I need deck treatment in the future though, particularly when I have more available funds, I will seriously consider having them do the work.  Based on my interaction with Chris, and with the nice lady in the office named Aaliya, I would recommend them.

"This is the second time that I've used Mr. Handyman and have been impressed both times. In each case it was very easy to schedule the job. Since both jobs were carpentry, Matt was the technician assigned by Mr. Handyman. He is an excellent carpenter, shows up on time, and works very diligently to get the work done in a timely fashion. I am very pleased with the finished product and recommend Mr. Handyman without hesitation."

"About five years ago, I had Chris and his team install a French door and vinyl tile in my kitchen and dining room. I was very impressed with the professionalism and skill of the team... always on time and exceptional job. Recently, I asked Chris to give me an estimate on a small repair job. Again , he was extremely helpful. I recommended Leon to my sister and my nephew and they were very satisfied with his work."

"Fence turned out perfect - everything from start to finish was a smooth process, great price for all the work that was done. We went with New Cedar semi-transparent oil stain and it made our fence look new again. Will be recommending to others. Thank you Cenia."

"Henry and his crew are beyond courteous, professional, and pay precise attention to detail. I originally hired H and M to stain my fence but had another emergency that Henry also ended up taking on. First, the fence stain looks GREAT. The team power washed the fence clean of debris, then returned after it was dry to apply the stain. They used the proper staining technique and paid specific attention to detail. They wrapped all items near the fence that could not be moved to protect it from unwanted stain. The job is VERY clean and neat and the fence looks great! I was offered a variety of stains and Henry helped me with any questions I had. In addition, I also had to have my door replaced. Henry was not originally scheduled to do this but politely agreed when he saw my need. He replaced the entire door and frame, including trim and paint. The paint job was VERY neat and professional and the trim replacement and caulking make it look seamless. I cannot express how grateful I am for their quick reply in my time of need and their keen attention to detail no matter what task they are given. I cannot recommend these guys enough! I have found my go-to contractor. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and overall outgoing personalities set them high above anyone else."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most Cape Cod houses are two stories tall at the peak, although they’re considered one-and-a-half stories tall because the steep roof pitch cuts off a portion of the living space on the second story. Unless you raise the roof on your Cape Cod house to add a dormer, the interior rooms upstairs will lose some usable living space to the sloped ceilings.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

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

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.
