The rating is bogus as it is required to be able to submit.

"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me.  Overall, they're good designs.  However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning.  I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging.  
Jill was very responsive when I did have a question.  I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done.  If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs.

"Platinum Remodeling has not only provided me with the highest quality product in my new roof, but they have also been my advocate in the struggle to get my insurance company to provide that quality product. My insurance company agreed to pay for a roof replacement after hail and wind damage, but their estimate was terribly low and did not include the neccessary costs to bring the roof up to current construction code. I chose Platinum Remodeling after doing a lot of homework; I asked 7 contractors for estimates, and I did my research on things like shingle warranties and venting techniques. Of the 7, Platinum was the only company that not only accommodated my concerns and questions, but they did it happily. Some companies tried to hurry me into a decision, calling often and asking me when I would sign; Platinum never rushed me. Where other contractors wouldn't remove my old turtle vents and fill in the holes, Platinum actually recommended it so that I wouldn't have the old open holes in my new roof. Platinum recommended continuous ridge vents, which are far more effective. Matt came to my home on several occasions and was professional and timely in person and with email. He answered everything I asked and he was forthright and honest. He explained the process to me, and did so patiently. Platinum also has a customer program to offset the out of pocket costs, which is a creative and very easy way to reduce your financial burden. On the day that I received my new roof, the crew was here on time. They did am amazing job of keeping the grounds tidy; their clean up service was impressive. At the end of the day, they spent a lot of time meticulously going over every inch of my roof's perimeter. I never did find any nails or shingles or messes that my dogs or children could get in to later. I know that I received the best service and the best roofing partner with Platinum. Despite my recommendation, my neighbors chose a different contractor who convinced the families that they would file their insurance claim for them, and even with the little I know from my homework, I can tell that they did not get what I did: there is no ridge vent at all on one of the roofs and on the other, the company didn't replace the old turtle vents and pipes, etc. Even as I write this two months later, Matt at Platinum and his crew are still advocating for me the RIGHT way with my insurance company for additional coverage of gutters and gutter guards. I recommend Platinum Remodeling 100%!! Your roof is a lifetime investment! Go with Platinum!"

"If you need any Stucco work done, this is the company to do the job. Sergio was professional and a pleasure to work with throughout the experience from initial estimate through the completion of the job. This was a difficult job, and the result was incredible, and the cost more than fair. Sergio is one of the most ethical contractors I have ever had the pleasure to work with."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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.

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.
