"Paul and his team did a brilliant job extending my back porch roof. The results is seamless! You cannot tell were the addition starts and the old roof ends. I have also used them to repair one of the beams in my front porch roof. Again, seamless work. They are always on time and clean up after themselves. Attached are before and after porch extension I would highly recommend them."

"Russ Hendrickson is capable, reliable, courteous and fair. He knows how to build and reface cabinets! He did exactly what I asked him to do and he was good about pointing out issues to consider (or re-consider!). He communicated frequently with me throughout the project. He pays attention to detail and cleans up after his work. I'd absolutely hire him again."

Customers say: Quality work

"This place is fantastic! I hired them several months ago to replace a bedroom window and a patio door screen. Recently, the condo association had the buildings painted and I couldn't get the bedroom screen or window to properly close after they finished. They came out, found that for some reason the painters had taken off the screen and put it on backwards which caused the window problem. They fixed it and I wasn't charged for the visit. I will use them for any window projects I may have in the future and I will recommend them to anyone."

"Henry and his team were wonderful to work with. They communicated clearly, did what they said they would do and showed up on time. The finished work was exactly what we wanted. We couldn't be happier. This project was unique as it involved replacing the decorative roof beams in an interior atrium, siding/trim repair and painting. Atriums are rare, so this didn't fit in with any normal Angi projects. The Framous Builders are framers, but they took on the additional tasks without question and did a fantastic job. We will not hesitate to reach out to Henry in the future."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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

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.
