"Enrico did a great job. Very good listener and understood my requirements perfectly. Super hard worker, we are very pleased with his work. He removed our old stairs and decking, built a great frame, then his finished work on the decking and rails was excellent. We highly recommend Filipino Handyman Services for any carpenter or home improvement jobs."

"Nate was not only available to do the work on short notice - it was a bit of an urgent situation - but his work was fantastic and the cost very, very reasonable. When I called him for some follow-up work on the same project, he returned to get it done at no extra charge. I could not be more satisfied."

"Ryland was exceptional! Looking at my new deck, automatically brings a big smile to my face! I am so pleased with the work and the fact he got it done before my visitors arrived. I won’t know the full impact until the weather gets cold, but the ramp is heated, so if all goes as planned, I won’t sustain another broken bone! I highly recommend Ryland to anyone needing good quality wirk."

"Along with the paining they also did carpentry work on cabinets and doors. The quality of the work is of the highest quality. This crew has an eye for details in everything they do painting, staining, carpentry work. At the end of the day they clean up after themselves and leave the place looking great"

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

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.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry.
