"This handyman team was outstanding! We had an emergency requirement for a bed frame and matress/boxsprings to be assembled & install for use the same day. It was not an easy assemble, but they completed it perfectly! In addition to being knowledgeable & professional, they were very friendly & personable. I will definitely use them again when I have a need!"

"The crew was polite and professional. No nonsense, and had a hustle to their cadence. As a retired framing contractor I was pleased to see this efficiency as the job was completed in a timely manner. Impressed they took the time to stop and ask me how I wanted a particular aspect plumbed when in doubt. The job was done cleanly and it looks great. Highly recommended A !"

"Serge did much more than flooring; he also installed electrical (lighting/ceiling fan & outlets) , bathroom vanities and enclosed an indoor storage area with custom doors. He is fair and an excellent worker. We especially appreciate his prompt communication. That work was done summer/fall 2022. Heâ s back now (summer 2023) for more home improvements."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

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.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.
