"Tom was the perfect man for the job. It required some "thinking outside the box" to build a deck over septic tank covers that would need access to in the future. He had many great suggestions, and worked well with me and my crazy ideas!"

"I needed bookshelves installed, and Travis at Helping Hand did an excellent job securing them. He really listened to my vision and instructions and brought it to life perfectly. Travis was professional, skilled, and clearly very competent in his work. I’ll definitely be using this service again and highly recommend him."

"This company and its people are fantastic! The team of Bill, Jorge, and Marvin that worked on my job were great. They built a fence for me last fall and did everything just the way I wanted. It really exceeded my expectations. I had them come back recently to adjust the latch on my gate and it was done very quickly. Their customer service is top notch too and always a pleasure to speak with. They even put in a special flip up door for my robot lawn mower. Very Happy Customer!"

"I had a good experience with Mr. Handyman of Kennewick–Walla Walla. Bryan repaired my door jamb and casing and also helped with a couple of kitchen drawers at no additional charge. He was knowledgeable, explained what he was doing, and the door is now working properly. I appreciated the extra help and would consider using them again."

"The projects were completed exactly as I wanted. I am in the process of selling my home and needed some items corrected to pass inspection. He got the work done quickly and neatly and now my home can be sold on time. He was very personable and I will be recommending him to my realtor for others to use who have a similar list of multiple handyman projects around the house. I will also recommend him to friends who just need help around their homes. His price was very reasonable."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

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.

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.

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.
