"I have never met a contractor more reliable than Darek. He makes the whole renovating and building process less stressful and fun. He replaced a deck in our house and help renovating most of the inside. (Until now we keep getting compliments from neighbors about the deck!) Darek is very professional and easy to work with, very knowledgeable and helpful. The best quality and value. Would recommend and use him again without hesitation!"

"Veronica and Victor were great to work with. They have replaced my deck in 3 days and it looks gorgeous. I walked out on it so many times just to appreciate how great it looks. Victor and his workers were very professional and detail oriented. I look forward to having them work on other projects in the future."

"I recently hired Connection123 Services for a deck repair project, and I couldn?t be happier with the experience. From the initial consultation to the completion of the work, the team was professional, responsive, and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the repairs needed, provided a fair estimate, and completed the job on schedule. The craftsmanship was excellent, the work area was kept clean, and the finished deck looks fantastic. It?s clear they take pride in their work and care about customer satisfaction. I highly recommend Connection123 Services to anyone looking for reliable, quality handyman and home improvement services. I will definitely be using them again for future projects."

"Mr. Toye was a real lifesaver. He showed up right when he said and he was easy to contact about scheduling and other questions. I needed some weird problems solved at the house I just bought and everything was expertly done! Dan's rate was very fair and I already have plans for him to do more work soon!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

Framing most homes takes anywhere between five and eight weeks to complete. You’ll need to account for inclement weather conditions, material shipment times, the number of crew members, and the weight of your materials. If the weather is too hot, wet, or cold for the installation, this process could take closer to eight weeks.

While it is possible to build a wooden carport yourself, especially if you are skilled in carpentry, professional construction is recommended. Professionals ensure structural integrity, proper anchoring, correct alignment, and the use of quality materials for a stable and durable result.

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

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.
