"One of the best decisions I've made this year was to hire Advance Building Repairs to replace my dilapidated front steps. Salah is a master craftsman. He came to my house the same day I called and assessed the situation. One week after I contacted him I had a sturdy, attractive and comparatively inexpensive new set of front steps."

"Derek created two bedrooms out of one large bedroom. From framing to drywall to creating closets to all the trim work. Hired him to also finish off a lower level recreation room. Also added closet and full bathroom. Did all the framing and drywall. All the trim work. Found his work exceptional so hired Derek to remodel our master bathroom and 2nd bathroom. Outstanding work! Very pleased! Would highly recommend Derek Hansen for any remodeling work or custom work that needs to be done."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A-frame homes are on the smaller side. While there’s no set square footage amount it has to be, it will usually come in around 1,000 square feet or smaller.

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.

Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes the risk of wall damage. A secure attachment requires making some holes for anchors or brackets, but these can be easily patched if the bed is removed. To ensure the installation is done correctly and safely, hiring a professional is recommended, especially if you have limited DIY experience.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project.
