"Very well. Ben did a wide variety of repairs, from installing curtain rods to fixing a hundred year old medicine cabinet. We are pleased with all his work. He cleaned up any mess and was very pleasant and professional. We will be calling on him again and recommending him to friends."

"I rank Landson Construction #1 in the list of contractors we have hired in our 40 years of home ownership. Ari and his team of subcontractors recently completed a challenging remodel of one of our bathrooms--challenging because it is a very small area with limited space. Their finished job looks better than our separate remodel of a larger bathroom completed by one of the big firms that advertises daily on television. Examples: the tile work in our small shower is exceptional, and the vanity/oversized sink is a perfect match that does not dominate the small room. Ari Erickson (no relation to me) offered selections from his preferred vendors, but we had full latitude to shop on our own for all tile and fixtures. He and his subcontractors kept us fully apprised at all stages of the project, arrived promptly throughout the course of the work, responded promptly to our texts and emails, and cleaned up their work area at the end of each day. My highest recommendation: I always seek at least four bids for a major project, but I would forego that process and hire Landson Construction again for future building/remodeling projects, and would encourage friends and family to do the same."

"The frame of my deck was coming loose from some joists. Jerry showed up on time, and did a fantastic job of repairing my deck. I have no doubt this will hold up for some time. Very reasonably priced as well."

"I contacted TCH based on other reviews of them for larger projects here. My project was to build a brand new wall downstairs for my office/bedroom so I needed someone to do the framing, drywall, mudding and electrical. The wall was about 10' and my ceiling is low so they even had to cut the door and frame to fit. Many handymen don't provide all these services, I was told to find a GC. When I contacted TCH they were responsive from the start. I knew from researching them they did more of a bid than pure hourly rates which I really liked. Darren came out to the house to take a look and help me figure out where the wall should go. I didn't have much experience so it was great to have his expertise in picking out a door, specifications, all of that. They also took care of adding an air return which didn't even occur to me. They were super flexible on adding some fixes for my weird wiring and rerouted a switch to the inside of my office from the outside. John was the handyman who worked with me on the project and he was awesome. Very considerate and asked about design and pointed out issues as he worked. He cut the door to fit perfectly, reframed it, got all the matching trim I needed. I was so happy with the result, all I had to do was paint! They could have done that for me too. Overall I'm super pleased and will definitely be working with them in the future."

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.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

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.

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.
