"Richard did a great job cleaning my roof and gutters. He is very hard working and conscientious ensuring everything was done to my satisfaction. He also did a good job cleaning up afterwards. The price was very good considering the number of gutters, area of roof and height involved."

"We hired 603 Construction during Covid to build an addition on our home, and the result completely transformed how we live in the space, especially our kitchen, which has become the heart of our home and an incredible gathering place for family and friends. Like any major project (especially during Covid), there were challenges along the way, but Mike and team handled them and delivered a final product that has created lasting memories for my family and friends. Great group of guys that work hard to deliver! Highly recommend!!"

"We were extremely pleased with the outcome of Teagan's very high quality craftsmanship. We had an ugly old brick fireplace that, with his guidance, has become a refreshing "work of art." Teagan was the first carpenter we interviewed and we instantly felt he was the man for out job because he spoke so knowledgeably, made us aware of things to consider, and even provided the name of quality business to locate the desired stonework we wanted. Not only did he create a beautiful wood mantel and surround with nice architectural details, but his stonework was impeccable. Teagan stayed in close contact with us and completed the job ahead of schedule. We can't praise him or his work more highly and wholeheartedly endorse him for any project anyone's considering. We would absolutely hire him again if the need arose. Thank you Teagan for making our long overdue dream come true."

Building went quickly and smoothly, and they were quick to respond to any questions and concerns. We are beyond pleased with our new deck, they did such a beautiful job."

"These men were the only ones to confidently admit they could accomplish the job of taking down my popcorn ceiling. All other companies said it wasn't possible. This crew worked so fast and completely that I couldn't stop praising their hard work. I'm hiring them back for another job. Highly recommend. They do what they say."

"Keith and his crew came out and did a wonderful job, the lawn guy damaged the vinyl siding skirting on both sides of my mud room and the two columns, and Keith and his crew repaired the damage and did a great job. I would certainly be using them again and also recommend them. Thanks Scott K."

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.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

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.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
