"I had an excellent experience with Neighborhood Handyman and couldn’t be more satisfied with the service. Jared mounted three televisions for me (75”, 58”, and 42”), and the entire process was seamless from start to finish. He was extremely professional, precise with his measurements, and worked efficiently without sacrificing quality. Everything was installed perfectly and looks amazing. On top of that, he was friendly, respectful, and made the whole experience stress-free. His pricing was very reasonable for the level of work and care he provided. It’s not easy to find someone who is both skilled and trustworthy, but Jared absolutely delivered on both. I highly recommend Neighborhood Handyman to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality service. I will definitely be using him again in the future! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"Dunnâ s for it done!! Friendly, fast work, made adjustments to make it more cat proof for me, cleaned up after themselves, and super easy to work with. I get very anxious when strangers are at my home, but he and his crew were professional and I was comfortable having them work for me. Thanks!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

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.

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. 

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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.
