"These guys were excellent. We had some siding that had broken off the house, probably due to a squirrel. They were able to complete the work the same day, the quote was very reasonable, perfect color match and the results were great. We'll be calling them again for more projects."

"Fantastic work. Good communication throughout the project. One small hitch in installing, hit rock and couldn't set the ties in all the way. What I liked best was the fact I was contacted and provided with a solution. One that they would have done for their family, that right there spoke volumes. No doubt that my next project will start with KW Handyman and Home Repair Services."

"He is an amazing craftsman! After our previous Contractor quit, he stepped in and took over, fixed the things that were wrong from the other person, and completed the job to perfection. All along the way, he was very communicative, polite, and right on target with his estimates and completion dates. We would definitely hire him again!"

"Amanda was great! Had a major crack in the kitchen window from either hail or a rock that spread really quickly. She replaced it, and you can’t tell anything ever happened! Very precise and takes her time which I appreciate."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
