Structural Carpenter recommendations? Hi all,
I'm renovating my standard issue dilapidated double shotgun and came across some structural issue that are way beyond my expertise.
Rotted sills need to be replaced, the house should be leveled and the cinder block piers are in need of replacement/reinforcement.
I was hoping one of y'all might have some good recommendations for dependable folks you've worked with in the past.
Thanks a lot for any help.

Hey there, Realtor here. When it comes to foundation issues, when you go to sell the house, the reputation of the foundation company you use matters just as much as how good a job they do. I recommend a recognizable, reputable name like Abry Brothers or Davie Shoring. When you eventually decide to sell, if a buyer sees on your disclosure that you had foundation issues and you took care of it, it will be much easier to convince them that the problem was solved if you have receipts from a reputable company like that.
Anyone know of a house-moving company? Someone wants to donate a house to GFN Fuller Center but we need to get it moved from one location to another. Any recommendations out there?
