"I contacted Thrifty Dee for a stair repair project for our rental property. We had a tight timeline due to a tenant moving in a couple of days. Dee was able to get to the property and assess the project within a couple of hours. He completed the job the very next day. His quality of work and attention to detail was phenomenal. His fee for the scope of work was more than fair. I will definitely use Thrifty Dee again for future projects as well as recommend him to anyone in need of a carpenter."

"Scott is a very dedicated, talented and customer pleasing man! He gladly came back and retouched the stain on the new front door he installed... 3 times! The door itself was expertly installed and his advice from the start was invaluable. Call him! You will be so glad you did...we are!"

"From the estimate through completion, Craig and his crew were amazing. He kept me involved and let me explain plans and worked with me to make it happen. They are beyond reasonable in pricing, efficient and clean when on site. My neighbors has work done based on their actions at my house. There's tons of companies that are fancy and play games, these guys don't. Do your self a favor and hire them."

Customers say: Quick response

"Follow up to my previous review as at the time I had to leave town and had not seen the final product, the results were perfect, exactly what I was expecting. To reiterate, working with Adam and Rachel was great, they are professional, friendly, communicative with customer satisfaction of top importance. Would absolutely work with again. After removing the popcorn ceilings, painting the ceilings and walls, the transformation was dramatic, thank you again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

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.
