"Honestly such a great experience from start to finish. We had a bunch of random things that needed to be fixed and organized, and I wasn’t even sure where to start. He was patient, professional, and handled everything way faster than I expected. What I appreciated most was how easy and comfortable the whole process felt. Nothing felt rushed, and he made sure everything was done right. It’s hard finding someone dependable these days, so I’m really glad we found him. Will definitely be calling again whenever we need help!"

"Kevin did an awesome job. Iâ m so pleased with the work. I have a house built in 1994 and hardwood flooring that was prefinished. He sanded the floor and put matte finish on it. Itâ s just beautiful. He gave a fair bid, arrived when he said he would, and was helpful with recommendations. I highly recommend his services. Listen to his thoughts and suggestions. Heâ s right. Youâ ll be glad you did. I know Iâ m glad I listened to him."

"I found this company very professional and they did a great job. They took out a steel door for us and laid 3 rows of concrete block in the opening. Then framed the remaining part of the opening and put plywood to cover the hole. I was so impressed I hired them to build a retaining wall for me."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

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.

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.
