"Very responsive! I have hired Lavender three times and plan to do so again. Jacob came out early on a Saturday to handle a roof repair. He is as very inventive in reconfiguring the overhang to prevent continued raccoon incursion. In another job, he replaced boards in a hardwood floor that had suffered damage. Very precise job, quickly done. Lavender also repaired exterior rot in another house and finished with decorative elements that made the place actually beautiful! Highly recommend Lavender. Responsive, skilled, reasonable. Cannot ask for more."

"Yari and Alturo went out of their way to squeeze me into their busy schedule. I needed to prepare my house to be sold. They brought in extra help to complete the job so the photographers could meet their time line. Alturo recommended I hold off on painting the entire exterior suggesting instead that painting the gutters and facia would make the existing paint color pop. He was correct and saved me a lot of money. I recommend them without any reservations."

"Rodolfo Palmas does it all. I needed a handyman to help me put my house back together after the hurricane. My sons room was priority for me since he had no drywall or ceiling in his room. I reached out to him and he responded immediately and came to see me the next day. He gave me an estimate and understood that this was important to me. He started the job right away and kept coming to make sure he took care of his room. We would communicate and he let me know when he was coming and the time. He is caring and as a family man he understood that children comes first. My sons room looks awesome and I am very grateful to him. We will continue to communicate in order to keep fixing my house at a pace that works for me and my husband. I have an entire house to fix but my heart is happy because he helped me take care of my son. God bless him and his family. I would definitely hire him for my future projects."

"Sean is a very professional and pleasant person who bent over backwards to get my carport secured immediately! Sean also went the extra mile to clean out my gutters while he fixed the carport. I am also having him replace the damaged metal this next week. I couldn't be happier with Cornerstone's service."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

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.

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.

An A-frame home can be cheaper to build than a traditional house, but that is not always a given. Prices can be fairly similar in some cases, depending on the location, design, and necessary site preparation. Costs for an A-frame typically run between $100 to $200 per square foot, which is comparable to the cost of a traditional home. The cost of an A-frame can come in under those numbers if you opt for a prefabricated kit.

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.
