"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!!!"

"We had cracks in the dyed mortar of the bricks above our garage. Grady took the time to match the color, even with the color having aged 10 years, and you would not even be able to tell that there was new mortar. If your project is anything like ours, you will not be disappointed."

"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

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

Yes, most services include necessary frame modifications for proper door fitting. Confirm with your provider.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects.
