"Rick was awesome to work with. In the world of contractors, they normally don't communicate well. Rick greatly surprised me with how responsive he was via texting. He is a friendly guy to work with in person and he did an excellent job at doing my baseboards throughout my entire house. He kept things tidy and cleaned up everything after he departed."

"Nick is a very reliable guy, he scheduled the installation of our interior doors in advance and the job was done without any delays. He did a great job installing our interior doors in our condo. His price was very reasonable with very high quality. I was so happy with him and the job he did, that I called him again to install our baseboards and base shoes, and he did a great job as well. I will call him if I ever need any kind of carpentry work again. I highly recommend Nick."

"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."

"Ross was not only diligent, capable, and did a great job with our painting project, but was also immensely kind and enjoyable to work with. He was flexible with my indecision around our project, pivoted to building us some wonderful garage storage at the end of his time with us, and is an all-around amazing person and handyman."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

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

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.
