"I recently had my siding and gutters redone by Home Genius Exteriors and I am in love with how everything turned out! The working crew was wonderful and they went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the final product (changed out my new exterior light fixtures and house numbers, came back to fix a few things, etc). There were a couple of minor things we needed to check on at the end of the project, but my project manager, Omar, stayed in constant contact with me to ensure that things were taken care of and that I was completely satisfied with everything. As a new home owner, I had reservations about working with renovation crews and I certainly had them at the beginning of the project since it was my first big renovation. But I will tell you the crew that I worked with from Home Genius Exteriors really changed my mind on how home projects can be handled and I'm very happy that I decided to have them do this first big project for me. Thank you to Darian, Omar, Eddie, Abraham, and the rest of the team for everything!"

"It was clear and evident that Fred was experienced and knowledgable when he came to my home to discuss what I wanted and gave me a reasonable estimate. Upon signing a contract, Justin and Mike were tasked with the build out. They were on site at the times they said they would be, extremely personable and educated within their field of work. They were also extremely hospitable in allowing me to watch them show their expertise as a learning experience. I would most certainly hire Fred and his crew again and highly recommend!"

"My husband and I wanted to upgrade our garage completing old damaged drywall and finish painting, Tony came in and did an outstanding job on it. He did a lot in a timely manner. We also had some odd jobs to do and he did a great job on them as well. Tony is professional, talented and prides himself in doing a great job. After everything was done he cleaned up everything. We would recommend Tony for any home projects. Paul & Sara"

"Great Experience – Highly Recommend Power House Home Improvement provided excellent service at a very reasonable price. He was patient, responsive to my questions, and flexible with scheduling. He arrived as planned, and when we had to reschedule due to a broken furniture part I discovered during unboxing, he was completely understanding. Once the replacement part arrived, he responded quickly and returned to complete the job. The entire furniture assembly was finished in under two hours and done efficiently and professionally. I would absolutely use him again and highly recommend his services."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

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. 

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.

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.
