"I chose Platinum Framing & Roofing, LLC to replace my leaking roof and I believe I made an excellent decision. The owner, A Maines, quoted a reasonable price for a lot of work. I was impressed with his obvious expertise and he answered each question in detail and with patience. His crew worked diligently and obviously took pride in a job well done. They were courteous and thorough. The color I chose was readily available and looks beautiful. Every line is straight and the added cricket, which I requested, will end the years long leaking around the chimney. I was kept updated on the job as it progressed over the day and a half it required. Mr. Maines and his crew thoroughly cleaned up everything before they left. From getting the permit to cleanup everything was done very well. I recommend this company."

"They were hired to tear out an old porch and build a deck. The work was done quickly and efficiently. Lucas, John and crew were very friendly while remaining professional and were hard workers. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them."

"After Hurricane Matthew a piece of the aluminum fascia peel off from the apex of my roof. I called six local companies and not one called me back. I heard about MDI from a colleague. I called them and Stephen responded immediately. He reviewed the project and provided a very affordable solution and price. When the workers began the project they noticed an issue with the framing. Instead of just replacing the fascia and moving on, they addressed the problem with the framing, corrected the problem and replaced the fascia. The project looks great and I would recommend MDI without reservation."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you’ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.

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.

No rules state how much of a load-bearing wall can be removed. Rather, you need to adequately support any area that is removed. Support should always be added to as much wall area is being removed. Failing to support the area properly will result in structural damage.

Bump-out additions can extend anywhere from 2 to 15 feet from an existing room. The right size will depend on how you plan to use the new space. For a cantilever bump-out, which doesn't require additional foundation support, the limit is typically 24 inches (2 feet). If a footing and foundation are part of the project, a bump-out can be much larger, even encompassing a whole room. It's also important to remember that many residential properties have limits on the total house size relative to the lot size.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.
