"Felt rushed to approve the work and pay the balance. Discovered multiple issues later. Just inside the door there's a rock they missed, so now it's under the plastic, which will sooner or later puncture through. I asked for a better door than the one the first installed, but the second was also poorly made and didn't come close to sealing. Called/talked to someone about the issues, but afterward they stopped returning my calls. They also left lots of debris on the ground. The inspection didn't pass for multiple reasons. Waiting for them to come back and address the issues the inspector found. Update: THBS did follow up and fix the issues. They constructed a new crawlspace door that seals, which was the biggest issue. They took out the problematic rock. The inspection passed."

I m the owner of Bills Handyman's Services, 20 years experience, i do all phases of home repairs,remodeling, general repairs, Just call Bill's Handyman Service @ (919) 699-5004.

"It went completely horrible. Bill took doors off the hinges, did not reinstall them. Installed new flooring on top of old flooring, even leaving the transition pieces underneath the new flooring. Never reinstalled the molding around the base boards. He was either late or did not show at all. After being paid, he disappeared and has everyone blocked. He did not finish the work that was invoiced out by him. This guy is a complete con and took advantage of my mother. His excuse for not coming back was his wife has cancer and is sick. I have been calling him for over a month with all calls going directly to the voicemail. No response to text message. Even the address on his business card is incorrect. I was able to reach via Angi’s list, he played completed dumbfounded like he had no clue who my mother or myself was. Bill ended the call with “send me the address and I’ll put a bank check the mail" that was literally the communication my mother has from him via text message. I strongly recommend not using this guy and his services/business not be advertised on this site. We will be seeking legal actions on him to recoup the money or monies back from him and his business."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Most lenders and homeowner’s insurance companies don’t mandate a structural engineer’s inspection, so in most cases, it’s not required. However, it’s a good idea to have one done anyway to ensure you know what you’re buying. You can use the report to carry out repairs after closing or even to negotiate the sale price before closing.

If you’re building new construction or adding onto your existing home, hiring a structural engineer is not only worth it but it’s probably required by your local building department. Structural engineers will ensure you aren’t making your home unsafe in the building process, which is crucial from a safety perspective but also a legal one. It’s also worth hiring a structural engineer if you’re making changes to structural components, like removing a load-bearing wall.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.

First, most contractors will have a structural engineer create a report and plan for your project to ensure it’s safe to cut into the load-bearing wall. The contractor will then excavate around the wall, if necessary, measure the opening—allowing for additional space to fit and level the door, and then cut the doorway out. They will likely install a steel lintel as a header over the door for support. Once the doorway is cut out, they’ll demolish the concrete using sledge hammers and masonry chisels, clean up the surrounding concrete, and seal around the door with masonry mortar.
