"I hired Tim to fix a banister and put up various shelving and picture frames in my home. He was prompt, easy to work with and did a fantastic job. His prices were very fair and reasonable for the excellent work that he did and I will be sure to hire him in the future for any upcoming projects."

"Aldo was great to work with. He painted our entire condo (1075 square feet) and put in new floors upstairs to make our condo ready to sell. He also fixed a couple of issues around the house which made our place look amazing! He gives you the best value for your money and does an amazing job. Very happy with our place!!"

"Duraglass was quick to respond to my request for services, and schedule visit to my home - I had 4 panes of glass in wood frames that were needed to be replaced, and a double glass window that also needed to be replaced. DuraGlass arrived on schedule, determined what was needed for repairs; maintained great housekeeping in the execution of the work. cleaned up after the job, kept me informed on progress and status on arrival, and provided consultation on an additional window that needs repairs. The pricing was competitive, and overall, I was very happy with their efforts and would hire Duraglass again."

"The idea of having pretty significant interior work performed in my house, with a pregnant wife, child, and elderly parents living there was an ongoing headache. I was recommended Olsenâ s Renovations through an acquaintance, and was truly happy with the choice. Olsen was well spoken at the initial contact, provided an honest estimate, and work started on the promised date. The experience was as stress-free (is there such a thing?) as these circumstances allow. The young man is a pro at his trade, safe, clean and punctual. Drywall install for a new space/plaster/paint was done as well as I could have hoped for, and I highly recommend his company. Thank you Olsen, and best of luck. Your hard work and winning attitude will surely pay off."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

Yes, you will need a jack for a rim joist replacement. To prevent sagging and facilitate the removal of load-bearing wood, you’ll need to relieve the pressure from this joint before beginning work. 

Due to hydraulics and other specialized equipment, a sill plate and rim joist replacement are not typically a DIY project. Hiring a professional structural engineer and experienced contractors is the best approach to replacing rotted sill plates and rim joists.
