Second Stories and Roof Framing on Ranches
Going up is often easier than going out on a tight lot. Roof framing for a second story starts with confirming the existing walls and footings can carry it, then framing to stamped plans.
Ranches, capes and bayside homes south of Montauk Highway: the framing contractor East Islip families call for garages, additions and dormers.
Drive the Southern State east until it ends at Heckscher State Park and you're in East Islip. The houses here run from postwar ranches and capes to bigger homes south of Montauk Highway toward the bay. As a framing contractor East Islip homeowners can reach in about half an hour from Smithtown, we frame all of them.
I'm Vincent Daddio. I started this company as a carpenter 23 years ago and built it into a house framing contractor and remodeler with seven carpenters and one helper. Framing is still the work I check most closely.

Attached garages on East Islip ranches are prime space. Basement and garage framing turns them into family rooms, offices or in-law space. We frame in the old door opening with a proper header, raise and insulate the floor, and frame interior walls straight and plumb.
Basements get the same care. We keep stud walls off the slab and box out ductwork neatly. See our East Islip basement remodeling work for what comes after the frame.
Ranches fill a lot of East Islip streets. Three framing projects change them the most, and any framing contractor East Islip homeowners hire should know all three.

Ranch kitchens sit behind a long bearing wall. Wall framing with a beam opens the room, and we shore everything before the old studs come out.
Crawlspace floors bounce and sag over time. We add girders, sister joists and fix the posts so the floor feels solid.
Bigger lots south of Montauk Highway leave room to build. We frame home additions, primary suites and bump-outs, and take on new construction framing from stamped plans as the new construction framing contractor on the job.
Structural and repair framing shows up in every house eventually: rotted sills, old termite damage, a girder that's sagged. We fix it and show you before it's closed up.
Exterior and deck framing is spring and summer work here. We frame decks on footings below the frost line, porch framing on front entries, and pergola framing over patios. Treated lumber, proper hangers and flashed ledgers every time.
Calls come back within 24 hours. Written quotes within three days. We work under contractor's license 46440-H, keep the site clean, and my carpenters follow through on the East Islip finish carpentry once the framing passes inspection.
If your framing contractor near me search started in East Islip, we're a short ride down the Sagtikos and the Southern State.
We frame throughout East Islip, from Brookwood Hall to the streets near Heckscher, and in Islip Terrace, Central Islip, Islip and Great River.
Planning a full renovation? Our East Islip remodeling crew is the same one that frames. And a framing contractor near me search shouldn't end with voicemail. Ours calls back.
For additions, garage conversions, dormers, decks and removed bearing walls, yes. East Islip is in the Town of Islip.
Yes. Garage conversions need a framed-in door opening, a raised insulated floor, and a permit. We handle the framing and carpentry.
Often, if the foundation and walls can carry it. An engineer or architect confirms that, and we frame from their plans.
We shore the ceiling, set a properly sized beam and posts, and get the work inspected before closing it up.
Usually undersized or damaged joists, or posts that have settled. Sistering and new girders fix most of it.
Yes, along with decks and porches.
