"I cannot sing the praises of Jose and his team enough. I purchased a new home that had carpeting everywhere and hired J & J Elite Carpentry Inc to replace with wood floors. They did an AMAZING job as you can see from the pictures. J&J even took care of replacing a few closet doors. Jose and his team are very friendly, knowledgable, patient, responsive, on time and professional. They communicate and are transparent with you every step of the way and get the job done with such great detail and care. They also specialize in other areas so I plan to hire them for other home repair needs."

"D's Fencing did an amazing job installing a split rail fence with metal mesh to make a large dog run on our property. The work was beautifully done and they were meticulous. The workmen were lovely and worked very hard. The owner was amazing and called us from his vacation to explain the short delay in obtaining the metal mesh. We're new to the area and relied on Home Advisor and reviews to locate a professional fencing company and we hit the jackpot with D's!"

"Francisco and Carlos arrived on time to set up the canvases on the floor. Francisco left and said he's pick up the painter in 8 hours. I had prepped the walls (spackled) and removed the furniture and electrical outlets/switch plates off the walls to speed up the painting process. Carlos, the painter, was neat and clean as he painted the ceiling, walls and floor trim and completed the job in the time frame that I paid for.  The walls and ceiling look great and overall the job was professionally done and the painter ensured that I was happy with the results. I am very happy with the work performed and would definitely hire them again.  I would also recommend them to friends and family.

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

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.
