Hunter was very easy very easy to get a hold of and was always responsive to our needs. We would highly recommend using Home Genius and Hunter as your project manager."

Customers say: Quick response

"Justin, Shawn and their crew were very courteous, prompt, focused and hard working. They consulted us several times ensuring that the work was done as we wanted. Through NO fault of theirs, they experienced a problems regarding the materials delivered. This was handled very professionally and promptly. In order to ensure that our deck was completed on time they returned lumber, secured the correct materials and even traveled to the Pittsburgh area to obtain all the materials needed in a very timely manner. We were very impressed with the quality of the workmanship, their diligence, and professionalism. Excellent company, we enjoyed working with them and would highly recommend this company! Great experience!!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Balcony construction or replacement typically requires a building permit from your local permitting authority. Safety and building integrity are the main reasons for the need to obtain a permit and the subsequent inspections. In some cases, especially cantilevered balconies, your municipality may also require the oversight and signature of a structural engineer.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.
