I have a "cottage". Really it's a tiny thing that resembles a large shack! I've been doing some sill repairs but some of the studs sitting on the rotted sill have rotted as well. I was thinking about cutting out the rotted bottom section, splicing in a new piece of stud and then sistering it all up with another 2x4. Does the sistering stud have to reach all the way up to the top plate? I can't realistically do this because it extends through the ceiling into the second floor. Any thoughts?
Ooops! Blew that one. I guess it is balloon framing. Did not catch the fact that the "shack" is a big multi-floor shack.
