"Yellow Dot Heating and Air Conditioning has provided more than a half a dozen service calls in six weeks on a Trane heat pump they installed as subcontractor for Lowe's Companies.   System is still under warranty.  On 29 May 2015 Yellow Dot installed a new TXV Valve under the warranty, but charged owner for labor ($743.91) or approximately $300 per hour for the 2.5 hours spent on the repair.  Technician told owner he was told to charge owner $743.91 and recommended owner call service manager, Keith Green if owner had any questions.  Service manager, Keith Green did not answer his phone and failed to return calls of inquiry regarding the labor fee charged.  On 31 May, heat pump system failed again (seventh time in less than 6 weeks).  During attempted repairs it was revealed that multiple improper installation procedures were followed (no water catchment pan safety switch installed, drain pipe installed backwards, broken parts, etc.).  Yellow Dot has yet to determine proper diagnosis of system failures and is attempting to charge owner for diagnosis of problems they failed to properly install or fix when the system failed.

Updated 6/25/15:  It has been three weeks now without an air conditioner breakdown.  The most since Yellow Dot installed a safety cutoff switch in September 2014 to prevent the air conditioner from continuing to run if water in the catchment pan rose to overflowing. 
As I promised Yellow Dot I am updating this review to reflect their fixing the problem.  Thank you to Trane technicians and Lowe's (prime contractor whole sold me the Trane unit).  Lowe's and Trane were able to discuss the problem with Yellow Dot to discover several errors in their installation parts and procedures.  After discussing the problem with Trane and Lowe's, Yellow Dot promptly returned to the scene of the problem and replaced several parts as they were instructed by the Trane technicians.  The system has worked flawlessly ever since.  The system is still under warranty, so there was no charge. 

Bottom line: I have raised my evaluation of Yellow Dot from "F" overall to "C".  I will do business again with both Trane and Lowe's.  Unless forced to I will not call Yellow Dot again."

"This is the second time we have hired Junior and he continues to impress us. He is super responsive and works harder than any contractor we have hired. He has high standards and ensures that work is completed with a great attention to detail. He is so trustworthy and honest; we left him with keys to our home. He goes above and beyond and is an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish!"

"He is thorough, and very detail conscience.  His work and pricing is straight forward.  He separates the cost of Labor vs Parts and Supply.  This means you can see there are no hidden markups in the total estimate.  This is the most tricky part of most estimates, and why Hammer Handyman sometimes 'seems' more expensive.  I have been low-balled by many contractors, and then suddenly towards the end of the project there is some cost over-runs that were never estimated or Parts and Supply from companies I have never heard of that all of a sudden I need to install or the project will not finish.  I never feel that I am being fleeced with Don."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.
