"We are so pleased with the quality work and craftmanship provided by David. We have asked him back for 3 home projects all of which we have been more than satisfied with the outcome. He enlarged a small deck and transformed it into an amazing sun room that allows us 4 season use of the area, just outstanding. He never cuts corners and is professional down to the smallest details. David then came back to install gutter guards to our existing gutters and cleaning out the thoroughly clogged gutters. He then installed a large awning on our basement French doors, which involved some modifications in the existing lighting and waterproofing all around it. David is very skilled, communicates well, and goes beyond what is expected of him to provide quality materials at a more affordable cost to you if he is aware of a cost difference elsewhere. I love that he is a man of faith and lives his faith through his honesty and quality of his work. We truly recommend him highly and are certain you won’t be disappointed"

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.

There are some rules regarding how far your exterior bump-out can go. For a cantilever bump-out that avoids the need to provide additional structural support, the limit is often 24 inches. However, if a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can encompass a whole room or more. Remember that many residential properties are subject to limits regarding the total house size relating to the size of the lot. 

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.

Framing with metal studs can be significantly faster than using wooden studs, provided you have some experience working with the material. While you can use virtually instant pneumatic nailers with wood, metal requires installing screws. However, because metal is lighter, straighter, usually comes cut-to-length, and doesn't require sorting for the best pieces, you can save significant time using metal instead of wood.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.
