"You expect a handyman to quote a job and charge to the quote with out add one; you expect a professional job done in a timely manner. Ean of Emery Builders does exactly that. Not just my deck but also he built an 8 X 10 foot shed in ONE day! Painted the entire house and my fence. All to quote! I have had many compliments on all the jobs. I would recommend Ean to anyone. Believe me not all handymen are equal."

"Leo and his workers were very professional in building a fence for us. They first dismantled the old tired fence the build a wonderful and creative one of a kind fence. He bid it right away and then sent me a copy via email. I was very happy with their work and the pace with which they did the job.. I will hire them for other projects around the place."

Customers say: Quick response

"When we first moved to Washington we bought a fixer upper because it was an excellent value. I had used no one in the Washington area before, since we moved here from out of state, and I found Stefan through this site. He is probably the most detail oriented contractor that I have ever worked with. The deck was completely rotted through, my siding as well and I had a collapsed chimney and this was the first time I have ever needed to replace any of these items. He walked me through my options both with careful regard to cost and attention to details that I specifically wanted to use in the deck design. We ended up using a mid-grade composite decking with hidden fasteners and metal in wood frame for the exterior railing. It will likely outlast the home itself it is so solid, and it is the perfect size in comparison with the home and with everything complying to our exacting local code. I have gotten so many compliments from everyone who has come over, including the inspector required by my insurance, and my neighbors are thrilled with the new view. In addition to the deck work, he has replaced our outside siding with concrete board as well as completely redoing the inside chimney, fixing plumbing issues as well as electrical work. Everyone he subcontracted with did exemplary work and I trust him implicitly. He completed the work within our budget. I could not be more pleased with the work, and we will be working with him on any future projects. I would absolutely recommend Stefan to anyone in the future."

"Outstanding! Both buildings were extremely well built. The attention to detail was excellent. Mike kept me informed about when he would be able to start and started exactly when he said he would. He also had some very helpful suggestions and he fixed a problem with my original plan that made the loft much more usable. Mike and his crew also did a great job cleaning up after each building was finished. I will definitely contact Lazer Construction if I need any future construction work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

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. 

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.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.
