"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"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Bow windows need support because they are large and extend out from the exterior wall of the home. Bow windows may extend 1 foot to several feet from the outside of the home, so you’ll need to provide additional support to handle this weight. A window contractor will be able to provide the proper amount of support for your new bow window.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

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.
