Replacing A Rotten Rim Joist

Replacing A Rotten Rim Joist

Today I'm going to completely replace the rim joist and sill plate because termites and water infiltration that have done a real number on this corner of my house. We need to sister the joists to make them stronger and put a new subfloor under the wall assembly. I put this one off for a long time because the idea of removing the only things supporting the walls of your house is a bit daunting! Turns out it's not such a big deal. ✪ Chapters ✪ 00:00 - Introduction 00:13 - Bracing and lifting the wall 01:05 - Damage removal 04:03 - Rebuild the assembly 05:45 - Conclusion ✪ Support the Channel ✪ Want to support my work?
