"I worked with Curtis to get the project going- it involved staining a wood fireplace mantel in our home. Unfortunately we had a chance of heart about staining it and did not proceed with the project. However, I really appreciated Curtis's upfront cost breakdown, etc. He gave me a detailed price and explained how the quote was developed. He was also extremely professional when we decided not to proceed."

"I chose Marcelino because of all the high ratings he received for his work. He lived up to the praise in both his work and treatment of me as a customer. His prices are very reasonable, he and his crew are on time and very professional. He not only treated me with patience and friendliness, but his work was excellent. In fact, he helped me figure out what I needed and did great designs for the work. One other thing that was very important to me is that other companies I quoted would have limits on what they did. So when I had specialized needs or little requests, they would say, "We don't do that." But Marcelino would do it. He did everything I needed, even small specialized things, and all completely professional. He went above and beyond. I hired him three times. First for my bedroom closet and office credenza. Then for a living room credenza, bathroom cabinets, kitchen roll-out cabinets and laundry room build out. Now, he is going to do my garage. I wouldn't use anyone else."

"They did a great job. I hired them to tape bed and texture and paint. They patched and painted a sheetrock ceiling. You can’t see the patch. They painted the garage. They came to look at the area’s prior to starting the work. That told me that they are a professional and dependable company. They came early the day they started. We had an issue with paint colors. Their scope of work was to paint the doors trim a different color than the walls. That was included in our agreement. He painted all of the doors and trim the same color as the walls. When I told the field crew about it they called the office team to check that out. I was right so they got to work on it. There wasn’t one complaint from them about the issue. They got to work on it with a smile. They are honest dependable and professional. Hire them you won’t regret it. I’m serious they are who you want to do your project"

"We found the services of this company to be exceptional. The work was completed in a quality and timely manner with no short cuts. It was also completed in a respectful fashion with attention to cleaning up the work area and removing all trash. Our work included replacement of an electronic ballast in a light fixture and installation of a ceiling fan. We would definitely use this handyman service again."

"I want to say that Mike did an incredible job putting together my furniture. I had a bed frame, gel mattress, dresser and futon. He made sure that all the parts fit. He made sure he kept the areas clean. He even took his shoes off so it wouldn't scratch up my floors. He is very professional, friendly and excellent at his job. I definitely will be calling again for his help. Thanks again Mike"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

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. 

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.
