"First and foremost, they showed up to give me an estimate. Something that seems to be exceedingly difficult to get people to do. Second, excellent communication before & during the project. Our deck of unknown age/origin, which had an interesting selection of mushroom or some other fungus growing on it (along with some spray painted Greek blue from the previous owners), needed to go. The job was done quickly over the course of 2 days; tear down & build. The site was left clean and they also moved my grills/furniture back up to the deck after completion. Great guys to deal with. We'll likely enlist their services again."

"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!"

"Tristen did more than removes trees. He mulched and aerated the yard. There was two days of work and all the jobs were completed. He was pleasant to work with. Communicated."

"Everything went extremely well! The representative, Mr. Keith Hall, was excellent. He made my family and I feel very comfortable during this transition to Knoxville. I not only recommend Mr. Handyman of West Knoxville, but him as well. Absolutely loved the results as well."

"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

New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.

Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.
