"I hired Patrick through Angi to repair my bathroom floor, which had water damage and an uneven subfloor. From the start, they were professional and clearly knew what they were doing. They identified the source of the damage, explained the repair process step by step, and answered all of my questions. The job involved removing the damaged areas and replacing the old flooring with waterproof vinyl. The difference is night and day—the floor now feels completely solid and even, and the new flooring looks great and should hold up much better over time. Overall, I’m very happy with the quality of the work and would definitely recommend Patrick to anyone dealing with water-damaged or uneven bathroom flooring. Thank you again."

"I was so stressed out with being a first time home owner, UNTIL I met Mike and his team! They went above and BEYOND! They helped with so much more than just what they were hired on to do. They literally made my house a dream come true. I love my home now. It went from ugly to BEAUTIFUL in about two weeks worth of time... The remodel was SOOOOOO smooth and came out FANTASTIC! I tell everyone and their mother to use these guys. I cannot thank them enough or give them enough credit. I will use them for all future endeavors. I LOVE these guys! Mike is the bestest and will get what you want done fast and seamlessly. HE IS TOP NOTCH and treats you like family."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

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.
