YM Construction is committed to excellence in every aspect of our business. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty, and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"Our home, which was built in the early '70's, needed repairs and a remodel. We reached out to several contractors to obtain bids. Leon of YM Construction gave us a reasonable bid and timeline based on our plans. He gave us a detailed estimate for the list of work we wanted done in the house, answered all our questions in a way we understood and provided available options. Bids from other companies were much higher and some tried to get us to hire them quickly while asking for half of the money upfront. Leon was patient, absolutely no pressure and gave great guidance. We felt very comfortable that he was the right choice for us. Our home remodel went fairly smoothly, was completed on time and relatively on budget. We trusted Leon and his crew throughout the construction process and we are so very happy with the result. He communicated constantly with status updates and if there were any issues. We are now enjoying a beautiful and safer home. We highly recommend YM Construction!"

Hello home owners, I have been in Construction since 2010 and have done a variety of work. I currently provide handymen services covering general house upkeep, doors, windows, fixtures, blinds, small repairs, rental readiness, landscaping, pressure washing, minor electrical, minor plumbing, etc. and small to medium residential kitchen and bath remodels. I am not licensed as a general contractor but can provide a fair labor cost for carpentry work and manage the renovation with the use of trusted sub contractors to ensure your home will be completed in good quality to your liking. With my knowledge and experience, I can ensure the work will be done safely and in accordance to codes, and regulations. I am experienced at renovating homes new and old, and am currently working on getting licensed to do more work. I can help you answer some questions by providing a vision for your remodel upon a walk-through. I also can provide contacts for other work needed such as roofing, flooring, electrical, plumbing, and such alike. Let's connect, and create a remodel you will love for years to come! Bryson

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

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.

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

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