"I couldn't be more thrilled with the work MM Cabinets did in my home. From the initial consultation to the final installation, Mirsad demonstrated professionalism, attention to detail, and a genuine passion for quality craftsmanship. He listened carefully to my ideas and offered expert suggestions that brought my vision to life even better than I imagined. The custom cabinets they built are not only beautiful but also incredibly functional, maximizing every inch of space with a seamless design. The materials are top-notch, and the finish is flawless. Installation was smooth, on time, and spotless—truly a stress-free experience. If you're looking for a cabinet company that combines artistry with practicality, look no further than MM Cabinets. I highly recommend them to anyone who values quality, reliability, and exceptional customer service."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.

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.

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.
