"I am so glad that I chose H&M Contractor LLC to replace a middle section of my kitchen/family room that was damaged due to a busted pipe in the attic. I initially interviewed 4 contractors and H&M Contractor was #1 by far. The owner, Henry, did not hesitate to tell me how he would go about doing the repair when I asked. He also was honest when I asked if I needed to replace the whole ceiling or just the section that was damaged. I was not at home for 90% of the time but Henry sent pictures of the work as it progressed. He and his team were on time every day and ready to work. Most important is the fact that his price was fair and he did not try to push any additional services that I did not ask for or need. However, I will be hiring him again soon for another project. He promised that he would do an excellent job and he kept his word. I love his work ethic. I give this contractor 5 stars!"

"We're having our deck replaced, and we discovered a decent amount of water damage below our backdoor and one window when the old deck was removed. Geo came out and gave us a estimate, which we thought was fair, and had his team come out to make the repairs. He did everything he said he would, and completed the job much more quickly than we could have hoped."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

If you’re just replacing a few broken or damaged joists, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 per joist. However, a complete installation for a home or room will take into account the cost of labor, which ranges from $25 to $40 per hour. Floor joist installation for an entire room, for example, can cost between $5,000 and $10,000, depending on the room's size and the materials used.

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.

There are two ways you can cut trim for doorways: with a miter saw or a table saw. Mitered joints need a 45-degree angle. If you’re unfamiliar with a miter saw, you might want to consider buying extra trim pieces or choosing butted joints instead. One wrong cut, and you’ll need to power up the saw again with a new piece. 

Butted joints—also called shaker style—don’t need a 45-degree angle. Instead, your side pieces attach perpendicularly to the header trim and only require a straight cut.

Professionals ensure safe, thorough repairs using quality materials, extending the life of your structure.
