"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."

"Allen is very reliable, responsible and skilled, completing work from carpentry to painting, in my home. He did an amazing job on a multitude of projects - He installed two wood handrails, hand cut pickets, and put in a wood post. In addition to this, he installed a garage hook, stain painted my outdoor deck, resealed the silicone around the glass of the shower, sealed my garage floor, fixed baseboards and shoe molding, installed bathroom hooks, and replaced the chipped tile in my shower. I highly recommend his services and would definitely hire him again. Lastly, Tabatha does a great job of scheduling."

"We are blessed to have found John! The job he did for us is second to no one I've ever hired. He painted our entire two floor house, including trims and closets with absolute precision and professional beyond any work I've seen. I have owned two other homes over the years and have hired others for the same work. John surpasses any other painter we have hired. He took his time and always professional and polite. The cost of this large job was more than reasonable. We appreciate you John and thanks for EVERYTHING ?"

"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."

Customers say: Super punctual

"I contacted the provider in late September requesting an estimate to paint some doors and trim, and to replace a dryer exhaust vent at my home.  Norm Reilly, the owner, set up a meeting with me on 9/22 to review the work needed.  Norm noticed that some of the trim work had some rotted wood, and recommended replacing this wood.  The other provider who provided an estimate suggested putty and other workarounds.  Considering the carpentry work suggested and the dryer vent (I only had the 2nd provider provide an estimate on the doors and trim as they were a painter) Norm's estimate was better for a better solution.  Norm told me it would be 2-3 weeks before his team would get to my job.  We had 13 straight days of rain, but they were still able to get to my job in 3 weeks.  A carpenter came out to take care of the wood replacement and dryer vent.  The following day (10/14) a painter came out to paint the trim and doors.
Everyone was courteous and did a very good job.  My one quibble is that the painter left paint chips on my front steps.  As I reviewed the work done, I specifically asked him to clean those off before he left but he seemed to be in a hurry to leave.  But if I needed similar work done again, my first call would be to Reilly's Handyman Services.

"The carpenters added eight shelves and removed the old clothes rods. First, the crew placed protective cover on our hardwood floors from the entryway to the closet. Since the weather was rainy, the crew needed to cut wood in my garage and they completely covered the items in the garage to prevent dust and wood shavings from blowing on the items. The carpenters were extremely professional and their work was impressive. The only recommendation that I would make is to ensure that the wood seams are completely caulked on the undersides of the shelves as well. The walls, ceiling and shelves were painted and the final product is truly stunning. Everyone who has seen the book room gave it glowing compliments."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.

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.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.
