"Tassio was extremely professional throughout the entire process of taking apart the exterior wood planks of our siding and trim. He basically rebuilt the exterior of our 21 year old home. It looks brand new now!! He was very precise and was cautious and neat about all detail. I highly recommend Tassio ; a very talented craftsman! He is the only expert!!! We will be happy to use him again and recommend his services!!"

"Fernando and his team were simply excellent. The project was painting the kitchen walls and ceiling, but it included fixing both the walls and the ceiling and take care of numerous nail pops and some water stains resulting from a water leak upstairs. They also stained the wooden sills and painting the radiators. They were extremely meticulous in both painting and also cleaning at the end of each day. They promised to finish the job in 4 consecutive days and they did just that. They truly exceeded my expectations. Reasonable price for the effort involved and their professional workmanship! I very seldom give such high praise, but I respect hard work!"

"The project on my home was a little unorthadox and complicated. But they were very professional consistently showing up on time, ready to work. Roko took my project and made it look so easy from start to finish without any problems. Thanks so much for being on my side Roko and helping me putting my vision together."

"Frank was incredible to work with, every step of the way. We got quotes from multiple vendors, and though Frank was not the least expensive (he was right in the middle), he blew away the competition--even those higher priced--in customer service, clarity, communication, and final quality. From design through completion, we were impressed by his talent, professionalism and transparency. His contract was detailed and comprehensive, such that we knew exactly what we were getting, how it would be constructed, and when each piece of the project would be completed and delivered. He sent us beautiful photos of his process throughout construction. He was quick to answer questions via text, and sent us gentle reminders when we had design questions to answer for him. When he arrived for the final installation, he was poised and incredibly competent, plus just a great guy- he even charmed our two toddlers and got them to follow safety rules - and they STILL ask for him a month later. When he encountered hiccups along the way (taping ripped paint right off our wall), he took it in stride, fixed the problem (though it wasn't his fault) and left it better than he found it. The final product is absolutely stunning and solid. The kids can climb the wrap-around 11 foot bookcases, and while they might get injured in the process - it won't be because of a flaw in the bookcases; these things are built to last forever. Frank even guarantees his work and includes returns for touch ups when the wood shrinks and moves seasonally. We will definitely use Frank and his team again, and we recommend him to everyone we know."

"We had a great experience. His price was reasonable. He responded to all messages. Was easy to schedule a visit to house to look at room we wanted painted. He promptly gave us an estimate and scheduled the job within 2 weeks. His work was fantastic. The room looks great. It was two colors with a chair rail separating. He was neat and cleaned up everything. He was polite and professional. Would definitely use again and recommend him to others."

Customers say: Quick response

"I rarely write reviews, but I had to take a moment to share just how incredible Dino was. He was truly extraordinary from start to finish, and I genuinely felt lucky to have found someone this talented, reliable, and kind. From the moment he arrived, it was clear I was dealing with a true professional. He was punctual, friendly, and came fully prepared with all the tools he might need for the job. What impressed me most wasn’t just his skills (which was top-tier), but his attitude. He was respectful of my space, super easy to communicate with, and genuinely enthusiastic about the work. His attention to detail was impeccable. I had just moved in and had a long list of tasks—mounting TVs, hanging shelves and curtain rods, assembling furniture—and Dino tackled every single one with skill, speed, and a can-do attitude. Nothing phased him. He was incredibly precise when it came to mounting the TVs, especially taking care to position them at the perfect eye level for comfort. He explained what he was doing throughout and offered thoughtful suggestions where it made sense. He really understood what I needed and delivered it perfectly. My home looks and functions so much better now, thanks to Dino’s incredible work. If you're on the fence about hiring a handyman who’s reliable, skilled, and takes pride in delivering top-notch results, look no further. Dino is the real deal. I’ll definitely be calling him again soon—and I’ve already recommended him to my brother and sister-in-law."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

There are several mistakes you should avoid when using butcher block countertops. Don't place hot pots or pans directly on the surface, as this can crack the wood and cause permanent damage. Avoid leaving wet items sitting on the surface, and wipe up liquids as soon as possible to avoid stains.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Homeowners insurance may cover damaged floor joists, depending on your policy. Insurance typically covers issues from storms, fires, or water damage from burst pipes. However, don't expect your insurance company to cover damage from wear and tear, poor maintenance, or termites.
