"Riply Construction was an excellent fit for my older ranch style remodel. Lenny Lyon and his teams of contractors were always on time, considerate of my property and did quality work. Mr Lyon provided several options and ideas for us to consider for the job - with accurate estimates as to cost and availability of materials. Once the scope of work was decided and approved; a convenient and continuous schedule of work was established and adhered to. Mr. Lyon was on top of all subcontractor activity throughout the project with daily visits and followup calls/texts with me. He always kept me informed of progress and immediately answered any questions I had concerning the work schedule or options. I highly recommend Riply Construction for your home remodel needs!"

"they were the only contractors willing to repair the extensive termite damage in my home. Kept up to date with me on absolutely everything and included me even though I live in CA. They also worked with my tenant to make sure they were in the know with everything going on. Ultimately they did an incredible job and I would recommend them for any job you need them for! My house was in a bad state and now it looks amazing!"

Unfinished 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.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.
