"I recently hired Eddie Magee with Punchlists to make repairs to some of my clients' homes. As a realtor, trusting your contractor is very important. I couldn't be more impressed with the quality of work, reasonable pricing, and reliability. He always responded quickly, arrived on time, and was fully prepared with the necessary tools and materials. Before leaving, he ensured everything was done to my satisfaction, and my clients were also pleased with his work. If you’re looking for a skilled, reliable, trustworthy handyman, I highly recommend Eddie with Punchlist. I will definitely be reaching out for future projects!"

"Guerrero Landscaping did a very nice job on our multi-level retaining wall. They were fast, efficient, and very conscientious throughout the project. Their charges for the project were right in line with others who bid the work. Would hire them again."

Not only did they consistently show up on time, but they finished the project early and were willing to reschedule the final walkthrough multiple times to accommodate our schedule. Final project turned out great!" Would hire them again for future projects !"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

If the bowing basement wall is less than 2 inches, steel or carbon fiber straps are the best solution. For bowing that is more than 2 inches, wall anchors are the most effective. A contractor can help you decide the best method of repair for your home's foundation and also address the root cause of the trouble.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.
