I’m a highly capable, hands-on problem solver who enjoys figuring out how things work and finding practical solutions when others may not know where to start. I offer a wide range of repair, assembly, troubleshooting, and installation services.\n\nI’m experienced with electronics repair and troubleshooting, furniture and equipment assembly, mechanical repairs, vehicle diagnostics and repairs, and general handyman projects. I’m also skilled at reverse engineering and diagnosing problems by understanding how a system is supposed to work and identifying what is causing the issue.\n\nWhether you need something assembled, repaired, installed, diagnosed, or simply need someone who can figure out a difficult problem, I bring a strong mechanical mindset, attention to detail, and a willingness to take on challenging projects. I take pride in doing quality work, communicating clearly, and finding solutions that make sense for the customer.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Traditionally, bungalows are single-story homes, although having a half or partial story on top of the first floor is common. While adding a second story to a bungalow is certainly possible, the home would no longer be considered a bungalow by the strictest definition.
