"I hired Jim Meinen and his team to remove a jacuzzi and put in a walk in shower in the master bathroom as well as a kitchen remodel. Jim is a man of his word and he finished the job in a timely manner, he is a master builder and is 2 steps ahead of any issues that might arise. He and his team are respectful, friendly and leave a spotlessly clean work area and most importantly, know what they are doing. I have been recommending them to all my friends and family and should I need more work done I would not go to any other contractor."

"I needed to replace an outside bunker door that accesses the basement of a summer home. I tried to find a local handyman through the internet and Home Depot with little success. I then tried Angie’s List and Juan the Handyman was first to respond. Overall, Juan did an excellent job in quickly visiting the job site, estimating the work, suggesting alternate solutions and quoting a reasonable price. After accepting the proposal Juan began work immediately. He sent pictures to me during the work to keep me informed. The completed job was better than expected and I am extremely satisfied with the work and Juan. I would highly recommend Juan to anyone looking for a good handyman."

"They were very thorough. They protected my home with plastic and filtration and went above and beyond removing the asbestos tiles. The tile and mastic are completely gone and the floor underneath is smooth. I never would have been able to do that on my own! They even moved the hot water heater to get tiles from underneath which I did not expect. 10/10 would recommend!!!"

"Adan and his crew were very professional, their work was excellent and prices were reasonable! We were very happy with the outcome of the redo of our familyroom. We also had them redo and insulate the adjoining garage wall. I would strongly recommend Shoreline Drywall for your next project!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

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.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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.
