"Joe did great job of replacing old tin with new tin on the barn. Also, frame out and put in 2 sliding doors. Not easy to work with an old barn. Very prompt to respond, good quality of work and fair price. I will be using Joe with future projects. Brad C"

"Cary at Wild West Construction we thank you and your Crew so much for the wonderful amazing work you’ve done on our door repairs 🤩!! You’ve been soo amazing with all your help and caring of our door projects you’ve gone above and beyond and we are extremely grateful:)! As a single mom I’ve been so worried about an upcoming inspection, and the pricing for repairs as well. But now everything is great and my mind at ease! Thank you again so much Carey and Crew ! I am very happy and I will definitely call you again for any repairs that I might have in the future 😊 I would definitely recommend Wild West Construction to everyone!! They are AWESOME 👏🏼 🫶🏼!!"

"Josue and Jaime did an excellent job restoring my deck. The job had been incorrectly evaluated by two other builders for an exorbitant price. J5M Builders correctly estimated the problem and got the work done efficiently and at an affordable price. They even hauled off trash that had been stored under the deck and everything was clean and beautiful when they finished. I highly recommend J5M Builders for big or smaller construction jobs and repairs."

"Yuni has a great attitude and is very helpful. He helped us with more than painting. He helped us demo a tub and countertops. He also helped us lay some slate tile. He was on time, his crews worked hard, and he followed through on everything he promised. We recommend Yuni!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

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.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

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

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.
