Structural and Repair Framing for Rot and Pests
Wooded lots mean shade, damp sills and carpenter ants. Structural and repair framing replaces damaged sills, joists and studs and ties everything back together.
Big wooded lots, older homes and the river next door: the framing contractor Great River homeowners call for additions and outdoor framing.
Great River is small, quiet and wooded, tucked between the Bayard Cutting Arboretum and the Connetquot River. Lots run bigger here than in most of the Town of Islip, and that changes what people build. As a framing contractor Great River homeowners can count on, we frame additions, garages, decks and porches.
I'm Vincent Daddio. I run a house framing contractor and remodeling company out of Smithtown with seven carpenters and one helper, and I've been swinging a hammer for 23 years. Our framing services cover the whole structure, from sills to rafters.
With room to spread out, Great River additions tend to go out instead of up: family rooms, primary suites, mudrooms and attached garages. We frame home additions from stamped plans, tying the new roof framing into the old so the rooflines read as one house.
For a teardown or a new house on a wooded lot, we handle new construction framing as the new construction framing contractor, then stay for the carpentry. One crew from the first sill plate to the last piece of trim.

Exterior and deck framing out here has to deal with shade, moisture and leaves that sit on boards all fall. We frame decks with good airflow underneath, treated lumber, and footings set below the frost line.
Porch framing and pergola framing round out the outdoor work, often paired with patio construction on the bigger lots. Near the river, all exterior hardware is corrosion resistant.
Older Great River houses come with older framing. These three jobs come up most for any framing contractor Great River homeowners call.
Wooded lots mean shade, damp sills and carpenter ants. Structural and repair framing replaces damaged sills, joists and studs and ties everything back together.
Older homes have small rooms and lots of walls. Wall framing with new beams opens them up while keeping the house solid.
Settled girders and tired joists make floors slope. We sister, shim and add posts to bring them back.
Basement and garage framing covers finished lower levels, detached garages and workshops on bigger lots. For finished basements, see our Great River basement remodeling page.
Permits go through the Town of Islip. Framing gets inspected before anything is covered, and we schedule around it.
We return every call within 24 hours and send written quotes within three days. We hold contractor's license 46440-H. Our own carpenters handle the finish carpentry in Great River after the frame, and the site gets cleaned up every day.
A framing contractor near me search from Great River doesn't turn up many local names. We're about half an hour away and glad to make the drive.
Besides Great River, we frame in Oakdale across the Connetquot, Islip Terrace, Islip and East Islip. Farther east we also work in Brookhaven. If you've waited on Montauk Highway for a car turning into the Arboretum on a spring Sunday, you know the neighborhood.
