"Very knowledgeable about roofs, building construction, etc. VERY honest and the advice he gave us about non-roof related items about our house was great. I would use them again for any roofing project we had. "
"sales rep arrived on time. I gave him details of what I had seen and wanted. I wanted the existing tub and shower removed and a walk in shower installed or built. He told me he would build a better job than what I could buy and install. Gave me a price and almost immediately discounted $1000. When I asked how long it was going to take to do the job he said " three days by two men." He described how the job would be done. The man that did the job, pretty much did what was described to me. The price was agreed at $8464. Told me they could not do it for about 3 months because they were so busy. I signed up for the job. I don't have the exact date the job was done. Approx 1 month later I was called by the man doing the job and told he could arrive in an hour and start the job. He arrived at noon worked till six and arranged to come back next morning at 7am. The job was done and finished and he was gone by 11.30 that morning. A total time of 11.5 hours. I had not had any luck getting anyone in McAlester to come and give me a quote to do the job, I figured these men would have to travel back and forth to Tulsa each day, or stay overnight in McAlester for the three days so I didn't expect McAlester prices. The rep lied to me about how long it was going to take to do the job, to make his price sound reasonable. I had a number of other jobs I wanted done and told him so. I had the other jobs done by local tradesman that cost me $8300. I hate to think what Community Builders would have wanted.. I would not recommend them to anyone. "
You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.
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.
Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.
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.
Removing a load-bearing wall is best handled by professionals. However, if you have the skill set and decide to DIY the project, you will still need at least one additional person to assist you. Aside from helping with demolition, you'll need another hand to install the new support beam.
