Structural Repairs

If you are a homeowner, inevitably, the need to replace damaged framing somewhere on your house will happen. Whether it is caused by an accident, pests, rot, or the desired change to the layout, rest assured, it is destiny. The cost of the repair will be determined by the size and scope of the project. Structural repairs are generally more expensive to correct than cosmetic ones but require professionals who know how to blend the new with the old and maintain the structure's integrity simultaneously. That's where Deaton Builder steps in.

  • Load Bearing Wall Repair

    Load-bearing exterior wall repair gets more challenging in direct relationship to the number of stories.

  • Floor Framing Repair

    Laundry rooms, bathrooms, and homes built with inadequately vented crawl spaces, are prone to needing floor repairs as they age. Moisture and mildew can rot floor joists, leading to costly replacements. When damage occurs to a floor supporting a load-bearing wall, it can be even more costly, and cause irreversible damage to sheetrock in ceilings and walls.

  • Ceiling vs. Roof Framing Repair

    Undetected plumbing leaks in second-floor bathrooms are a major cause of ceiling damage. Poor chimney flashing is another common problem that can go unnoticed for years, leaving the ceiling joist rotted and decayed.

  • Stair Framing Repair

    Exterior wood stairways don't last forever. Eventually, components start to succumb to the elements and need replacement. Steps or sections of the handrail can be repaired individually, but the stringers are a different story. When one of these structural supports shows cracking or begins to break, they can often be strengthened by laminating a sufficient size board to it. When this is done additional support may be needed.

  • Door Framing Repair

    Entrance door frames are more susceptible to water damage than most other areas of a house. Water can seep under the casing and start to rot the framing. If not repaired immediately, the bottom wall framing can break free, causing the wall to move back and forth when the door is used.

Framing Repair Issue: Water Damage vs. Rot vs. Broken Framing

Broken framing is less complicated to repair than water damaged or rotted framing. When framing gets broken, there is a definite beginning and ending point that is usually easy to determine. When water damage occurs, the extent of the damage may not be readily visible, requiring investigation tear out to determine. Rotted framing is the most offensive culprit of the lot. When rot occurs, termites can often be filling their bellies with your house. These little pests have voracious appetites and do maximal damage in minimal time. The most serious damage usually takes place out of sight, behind siding and sheathing.


Because framing is structural, it is important to get repairs done as soon as the damage is noticed. Delays only end up costing more money, and if safety issues are a factor, a professional repair can save legal expenses that are neither - wanted or needed. All repairs must be evaluated and repaired by a licensed general contractor and may even require the assistance of a Professional Engineer. Rest assured, Deaton Builder has the expertise, and experience on their team to properly repair any damage you may have and will provide you or your realtor with a letter of inspection and repairs.
