"Phillip and his team did excellent work at a reasonable price. We had damaged siding replaced and the whole 2-story house painted. More siding needed to be replaced than was initially expected, but the original estimate was honored. I did not feel like there were any corners cut, and all of the workers were very neat and respectful of the space. I would definitely work with Phillip and his team again."

"Tree Line Design and Landscape did a fabulous job for us!! Our yard needed soil, sod and drainage. They filled in all areas where the soil had eroded, fixed our drainage issues and laid sod. There was a bit of a delay in finishing the job because we didn’t initially have enough sod to complete the job in the time originally estimated. Some of the first batch of sod wasn’t as good as she was used to and we didn’t have enough to complete it. Patricia made sure the vendor made good with the last batch received and it was all absolutely gorgeous!! We even had enough left over (which we had hoped for) to give to our neighbor and Patricia and her crew laid it for him. The job was completed a few days later than initially expected but, we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Patricia also recommended some pine straw to put around the trees in our yard which creates a beautiful contrast of color. Highly recommend this group!! They will create a beautiful yard for you!!!"

"We couldn?t be happier with the custom TV unit Lawrence built for us! He designed and crafted beautiful cypress cabinets and floating shelves that completely transformed our living space. The electric fireplace adds a cozy, modern touch, and the extra hidden storage is genius?perfect for keeping things organized without clutter. Lawrence was professional, detail-oriented, and knew exactly how to bring our vision to life. The quality of his work is outstanding, and he finished everything on time. Highly recommend him for any custom carpentry project!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
