"Great pro I will give them a10"

JAMES B on August 2025

I'm a 20 year electrician looking to venture out on my own. I do more than electrical. I do carpentry, metal fabrication, interior/exterior finish work, and much more just ask.

"Mr. Lee has completed several projects for me and I will continue to have him help me in the future. I find him to be refreshingly reliable, professional and personable. Some of the projects he has helped me with include: replacing my dryer hose, repairing wall-board, replacing 40 year-old kitchen bay windows, cleaning and removing unwanted items from my garage. I would recommend Mr. Lee to anyone he needs help with handyman projects."

MILSPEC Handy Man Services is a handyman service that specializes in half or full-day projects. Currently, we are booked approximately 2 to 3 weeks out. Serving the Hampstead and Wilmington areas, I have helped many knock out those tasks that normally take their entire weekend which allows them to reclaim their freedom to do what they would rather be doing other than working on their off time. Let me help you get things done. Rates are reasonable and quality is always my priority. PROVIDE PROJECT DETAILS IN YOUR REQUESTS PLEASE! Without them I cannot determine the scope of your project which usually results in declining requests.

"Karl cleaned our dryer vent, replaced front porch rails and repaired floor on our back deck. He was meticulous with his workman ship and neat with all of his projects. If and when we need any home repairs he will be the one we call.....we feel lucky to have been introduced to him."

"thanks to this site, I called Greater Wilm. Structure about a brick house I was buying that had cracked brick and unlevel floors. I assumed I would only (!) need to have that section of the home jacked up and the foundation repaired. Brian returned my call quickly, and met me and my realtor at the house (was a 45 min. drive for him) to give me his opinion and verbal price quote. Many contractors/carpenters would have just focused on the project and the money involved, but Brian wanted to see WHY the house had sunk. He pointed out the major structure issues with the tresses in the attic, joists, as well as other red flags, that would cause problems later. He's a master carpenter and his knowledge, experience (and sense of humor!) was refreshing and valuable. After meeting with him I decided to pull my accepted offer on the home and feel I have saved myself untold amounts of money, stress and frustration. I will definately be hiring this company in the future."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

There are some rules regarding how far your exterior bump-out can go. For a cantilever bump-out that avoids the need to provide additional structural support, the limit is often 24 inches. However, if a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can encompass a whole room or more. Remember that many residential properties are subject to limits regarding the total house size relating to the size of the lot. 

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
