"Jayme and his crew were fantastic. They built me a beautiful new deck, took down the old one, and did multiple other repairs to spruce up my backyard. They know their stuff, were efficient and speedy, and showed the expertise needed to create a really fine product. I really appreciate all the suggestions and help that Jayme gave me along the way, very professional, knowledgeable and trustworthy. I'm already looking forward to the next project that we're planning."

"My wife and I hired H&L Construction back in September of 2024 to replace my shingled roof to tin. The shingles were beyond repair and I needed the job done asap. Michael from H&L came out and did an estimate on the materials I needed. After purchasing everything on his list we set a date to proceed. H&L came prepared and on time. With some experienced roofing family members helping out. The job moved along very quickly . Michael from H&L construction took the lead as the foreman and guided the crew with all the measurements ,cuts and angles needed. The job flowed along nice and easy. Thank you to H&L construction for a job well done. Phenomenal work and rates even better. We ended up saving almost five thousand from a previous estimate 🥳. Five star rating and would recommend to anyone looking for honest professionals!!!"

"Darin and his crew at Hilltop were professional, courteous, knowledgeable and timely. Hilltop handled the excavation, permits, concrete pour, framing, electrical, roofing, siding, and finish of the garage project. It will definitely be an added value to my home. Hilltop did an excellent job, especially in the adverse winter conditions. I would absolutely hire Darin/Hilltop again. Darin was also excellent in communicating via email, text, and/or voice. This was a convenience to me as I do not have cell reception at work."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

Framing a house with steel generally takes less time—around five to eight weeks—than most building materials. The steel components can also be made quickly off-site and manufactured with pre-punched holes for running piping and electrical wiring, which will lessen the prep work and extra labor during construction.

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.
