"Jeff did an excellent job. Flexible with scheduling. Friendly and knowledgeable. Went over and beyond by replacing a support pole and rebuilt frame for the ac outside the window, and reinstalled a small roof over the ac. Interior work was well done. We highly recommend him."

"I got the call we all dread, the mother-inlaw was moving in, the spare room had been my storage room for years, and after emptying it I realized how much the years of neglect had taken its toll on the room, being busier than ever I decided to do something I'd never done, hirer the work done, taking a recommendation from my neighbor I called Suwannee Sunshine Services where I spoke to Kevin, he was prompt in getting back to me, even made some great suggestions for the room, gave me a quote well within my budget, and finished ahead of schedule, he recalled helped take a tough spot I was in and turn it into a positive. If your looking for help with a project over your head, make call to Kevin, you'll be glad you did, we were."

Carpentry FAQs, 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 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.

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.

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
