"We had S and D build us a floating deck. Sunil and the rest of the team were very professional and really know what they are doing. They are great at asking questions during the project to ensure the best product is delivered to their clients. We will be reaching out to them again for other house projects."

"Aldin was a pleasure to work with. I had entire inside of our home painted. The project is was completed when promised. Whenever I had a question or concern, Aldin answered and put my mind at ease. He went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. Such a good feeling to hire someone to do a job and feel completely satisfied when complete. Will be hiring him again for a few future projects we have."

"Ari and his brother were clearly skilled at doing tile work. They were very exact and gave good attention to detail. They were careful to approach the job so that I would be satisfied with the decisions to be made and the outcome. They are reliable, hard workers, and very pleasant."

"If you are looking for an honest, reliable, hardworking, talented, good humored team of home improvement professionals, Hired Hand is it. Brady and his team gave us a reasonable, competitive quote on a host of jobs in our VERY old house â  from demolition, to new walls, refinishing 230 year old wood floors, etc. They were here every day, as promised until they were finished. AND THEN came back to touch up trim and another wall that Brady deemed â  not perfect.â  I leave with a master craftsman, and he was more than satisfied with their work. That is a statement! And they were enjoyable, many a lively conversation was had. I highly recommend Brady and his team, you canâ  t go wrong."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

The cost to frame a 2,000-square-foot house can fall anywhere between $14,000 and $32,000. This price can increase or decrease depending on what type of framing you choose, the quality of the materials, the project's complexity, and whether you decide to hire a professional to do the job.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

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.
