"Bryce Dineen and his crew from BD Fence Solutions definitely get 5 stars from us. Bryce immediately returned my phone call and came the next day to look at what we needed and discuss the job. His crew removed and replaced 320' wooden horse fence , saved and neatly stacked the old wood for us. They them removed and replaced 3 decks that had been destroyed by snow and ice. This team was professional and friendly the entire time that they were here, checking with us along the way to be sure they were doing what we wanted and being very willing to make any changes or additions that we wanted. Their work was beautiful, their clean up meticulous. We will most definitely use them again for any future projects and highly recommend them"

"This was a very involved plaster repair and remediation job, in a very old house. Grady is the only person (or company) who was willing to take on the job and drive all the way from Pennsylvania to our home in Northern Virginia. There are very few people who do this kind of work anymore (we really searched) and he is an expert in his field. We needed to work around his schedule, because he is in demand in the tri-state area, so it took awhile to schedule the work to begin... but it was worth it."

"The main project (bathroom floor replacement, which was the original reason we hired MTH), and the side projects, went exceptionally well. Serge and Nick did an outstanding job.

Serge was affable and courteous. That was my wife's and my impression of Serge when we first met him. Unlike another contractor we interviewed for the project, Serge never tried to convince us to do more than what we wanted done. We explained to him the repairs that needed to be made, he understood them, and suggested on how best to address them.

The day after our initial meeting, and about a week before the project's start date, Serge emailed to us a contract that spelled out the work required, the cost of labor,  the payment schedule (no payment upfront; in fact, we paid a big chunk, about 40% of the total cost, after the projects were completed), and other terms of the contract. The cost of materials was not stated on the contract, but Serge gave us an estimate during our first meeting. We went over the estimate because of the side projects that we added later.

Serge regularly updated us on their progress and he gave us copies of the receipts for the materials he purchased. We knew where we stood.

The member of Serge's team who did most of the work was Nick. My wife and I were home for the duration of the projects, so we were somewhat aware of what he was working on at any given moment. We often wondered if he took breaks or ate lunch because he was constantly "on the clock." His diligence, and the quality of his work, which was first-rate, were commendable.

Nick did everything: tiling, drywall repair, painting, carpentry, plumbing, molding installation. He was a master of many. He did all those things while keeping the work area, and surrounding parts of the house, clean.

You can count my wife and me as another satisfied customer of My Town Handyman. We highly recommend Serge and his crew for your next home improvement project."

"I had contacted Mike at Premier Medical Equipment to install a ramp for my husband who was to be released from the hospital. I had paid the down payment and before it could be installed, my husband died. I contacted Mike and he quickly returned my money. He was very gracious about doing this. Initially when I contacted him for information about the ramp, options and time frame for installation, he was very professional and helpful. He spent time answering questions and quickly sent me a quote. He contacted me to let me know when it had been scheduled for installation. I certainly would recommend this service. Although I did not ever have the ramp installed, I gave 5â s for quality of work (customer service) and value for my money since he quickly returned my deposit."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

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.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.
