"I hired Bill (Red Butte Construction) after an unpleasant spec review with another contractor. Bill was a huge relief. With his experience and professionalism we were quickly able to launch a $500,000 project. Managing and living through a remodel is stressful to say the least. Besides the inconvenience, unexpected challenges arise, timelines change, budgets explode and delays are inevitable. Bill took the stress out of the inevitabilities of any contract work. His communication and flexibility for solutions was a godsend. I was managing my project from 1000 miles away. Because of excellent communication and proactive solutions, we completed the project with minimal delays and only marginally over-budget. I recommend Bill without hesitation. Remodeling is a stressful experience. Good communication, experience, and flexibility mitigate the inevitable. Thats what you'll get with Red Butte Construction."

"Absolutely fantastic experience. They had a cancellation and were able to come in the next day after estimate. Fantastic and well done job. Also had custom built shelves done by the same carpenter and they are beautiful and true works of art. Could not be happier with experience, price, and workmanship. Highly recommend and will use in the future."

"I called Cransten because they were authorized installers of an Auxx lift system. Alexei Newenham came out and did the work of relocating my existing attic access folding ladder, cutting and blocking a new hole, and installing the Auxx lift. Alexei was great, and I highly recommend him. His work is good, he is personable, and he is skilled at the rough framing, trim carpentry, plastering and painting, and complex lift install. He is the first one I’ll call when I want more work done."

"Amauri and his team did such an amazing job! They were hired to fix a new deck placed by a different contractor. Sadly, the other contractor did not build the deck up to code, MAC Atlantic came in and fixed everything. The team is proficient, has great customer service skills, and the finished product is BEAUTIFUL! It was apparent that Amauri and his team at MAC Atlantic take pride in their work as they should. Their work is outstanding!"

"Matt and his team did a fantastic job. Always on time and worked a full day. Matt did everything I wanted and more. He offered opinions when I was undecided on what I wanted. They power washed my driveway when they were done and left everything clean and amazing looking. I highly recommend this company for your landscaping needs."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The primary parts of a house that need framing during construction are floors, exterior walls, interior walls, and the roof. The framing in these areas provides the skeleton for adding other materials over the top. With walls, for example, contractors can hang drywall over the interior walls and siding over the outside of the exterior walls. Proper framing ensures a sturdy house that is built to last.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

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.

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 variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
