"While I did not hire this company ultimately, I remained very impressed that they came to the site fully prepared (they did a ton of research on my property) and were ready to go day one had we chosen to go with them. In the end, we only decided to go with another contractor due to their existing familiarity with the current neighborhood we were in however, Empirevue are a top notch professional company judging by our initial interaction and I will be reaching out to them again for our other projects"

"OUr 21 yr old kitchen had a sliding glass patio door that we desired to be removed and replaced with a standard entry door and security door. This project was accomplished in early October. The project was completed in two days, with the kitchen entry door fully operational by the time the two workers left for the day. They not only had to remove the old patio doors, tracks, install new framing, but also empty and move a floor to ceiling cabinet blocking the wall space needed to make a seamless connection with the original wall. On the exterior of our home, they also prepared the area to install new plaster siding to again seamlessly connect with the original siding. The following day, the exterior security door was installed and everything was fully completed. During this second day's work, a matching security door at the front entrance of our home, including a covering of sun screening material was also installed. All necessary painting was meticulously performed. We are extremely pleased with the results. Now that the cold temperatures have been visiting us for a while, we definitely notice a coziness in the kitchen without our heat pump having to be on continually to experience comfortable warmth. Whenever I have recently baked (Cornish hens, strawberry muffins, Scottish shortbread cookies, made from scratch yeast breads, and etc) the kitchen remains comfortable into the evening hours. No more taping the patio door gap to keep the cold air from seeping into our home!"

"Jose was very professional and did an excellent job. We had 2 exterior doors installed plus a security screen door and molding put on the doors plus a 3rd inside door molding and threshold. The only thing I would say he was delayed and forgot to let us know. But it turned out great and we love our doors! Will hire him again! Thanks Jose!"

"Rubin came out to look at the job and discussed an additional job I was considering. He did not send the estimate for the second job, but then did communicate the information to me when he came out to do the first job. Rubin was very professional, personable and a clear communicator. I had purchased and Angie Big Deal of three hours for $99 dollars expecting the job would require an additional 1-2 hours. His estimate and final price came out about what I expected. His work was very good. I will have him back to do the second job of refinishing the walls in the bathroom."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

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.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

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.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project.
