"These men are excellent. They are polite, they show up when scheduled, they do a fabulous job on our lawn. We hope to keep them busy for the long term. A breath of fresh air compared to the lax attitude of other landscaping companies we have hired in the past. Definitely a keeper!"

"Im very impressed with them and have already hired them for a second job and will definitely be working with them more. He came out and did a full walk-through of my house where I showed him each of the projects I need to get done, spent lots of time looking at everything and getting an idea of exactly what I wanted done. I got the best quote from these guys for a roof by longshot, and the roof is perfect. He communicates every step of the way, gets in there and gets the work done efficiently and does not leave you hanging about whats going on and when. Above and beyond all the other handymen Ive had out since I bought the house! Im having them do everything from here forward."

"Working with James was a wonderful experience from the first phone call to the finished product! Any worries I originally had about starting my custom cabinets project went away when James brought his professionalism and expertise. His knowledge and craftsmanship was one of a kind and he was able to offer ideas and suggestions along the way that would best achieve my goal. His communication was very consistent as he kept me updated on the work with pictures, phone calls, etc. I would absolutely say that the quality work and skill he provides is worth every dollar."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.
