"Mike was incredibly kind and helpful getting things done to code on our budget. He did our porch, firewall and kitchen floor without a big crew or making a huge mess. Highly recommend for anyone who needs a fix up or a bigger projects and needs to work on a budget! Will happily call him for any other repairs needed going forward."

"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."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

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 both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.
