"We hired Brandon and his crew to repair and reside our garage with vinyl siding. The work was done as scheduled and the results are beautiful. A very professional job. We then hired him to build a pergola over our driveway. I had a very good idea of what I wanted but the final result is so much better than I expected. They paid such attention to little details that made the end result absolutely perfect. Very reliable crew, hard working and very skilled workers. Will definitely hire them again for our next project,"

"Shane did a superior job of staining the wood fencing that runs around our house and farm. It was a lot of work in difficult conditions since he was doing the staining in January. He worked around the weather (remember the week of snow in West Tennessee) and came back to finish as promised whenever we got a days warm enough to apply stain. We highly recommend Southern Builders."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Framing is the shell of the house. It includes several steps, including studs, plumbing, and electricity. A professional will ensure the wall frame is secured for the house’s structural integrity. 

Framing prices change depending on the material and whether the wall is load-bearing. Most contractors use wood to frame a home, but metal is another popular choice.

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.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

While some highly experienced homeowners can frame a house independently, it is not advisable. You will need ample carpentry experience, a team of helpers, and professionals to sign off on your work to meet local building codes. For the safest outcome, we recommend buying or building a house with the guidance of professionals.

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.
