"Chris and his guys are the most prompt and reliable crew to work with. He did some outside work at our house (deck repair and staining and some other repair work) and also did a ton of important jobs for my mom (cleaning the boiler heat exchanger, creating a small dog fence area very quickly and repairing a deck). His costs feel fair and he is very communicative and honest about what needs to be done and what can wait. We’re very glad to have such a capable, responsive, honest person to contact when we need home repairs."

"Munion Kitchen Cabinets is the absolute best! Jimmy, his son Anthony, and his daughter Nicole worked on our kitchen and dining room. They refaced and rebuilt all of our cabinets in our kitchen, and built from scratch an entire dining room cabinet set in our dining room. They also worked so well with our counter top company to make it as seamless as possible for us. We pretty much redid that entire side of the house (kitchen and dining room) and they could not have done a better job. The work they did was incredible. Jimmy was hands on and we felt like we could trust him. We even had a fridge delivered while they were working and he spotted a scratch on it that we didn’t see at first and we got it replaced. They also hand built a fridge “built-in” that is incredible. We feel like we are living in our dream kitchen because of the work they put in."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

Duration varies by project size, but average-sized homes typically take a weeks.

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.
