"I never contacted the provider or used this service in anyway. I have to
write this review so that the request to write this review stops
popping up.
The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit.

"They did a good job. She had to submit like a photo but my daughter had them work on the central are of the loft. The deal was for one room. She got a lot of good ideal from her and it was worth it for her. They were professional and I did not hear anything negative."

"It went well. John was easily accessible and available even when he had to drive all the way in from Lafayette. We are pleased with the remodel! I would use him again."
This a house that had a fire in garage and we had to gut out entire interior and removed all ceiling joists and entire roof then install new ceiling joists and build a new roof

"Randy's came out quickly after we first called. They gave us an estimate for the project right away. We later added to the original project to include other areas of our building which was greeted with a "No problem". They came to do the project quickly as scheduled and stayed until it was entirely completed. They were very professional and talked with us throughout the project. They voluntarily did a few extra things that made the project look even better WITHOUT CHARGING a dime extra. Even when the project took a day longer because of the add-on, they didn't change the original estimate and didn't complain. They were very positive and even cheerful throughout the project and worked very hard. They were continuously professional and friendly. It is obvious that they cared about the quality of their work. We had a great experience with Randy's Total Renovation. They did a great job at a great price and did extremely good work. We will hire them again for all work we need and recommend them to anyone who needs any kind of construction or renovation"

"Although our overall job had a change in scope and had to be stopped and re-started a couple of times, Mr. Minor was ready and able to get the job completed. The crew was quick and efficient. I’ll call them again when I need electrical work done."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

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.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

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.
