"Josh of Shepherd’s Hammer did an amazing job for our home. He installed a fire wall and fire door in our garage, as well built a new back deck. Both jobs were great. He was always on time, completed the job as planned, on budget, and kept us updated on the projects as they were in progress. Exceptionally pleased with the work. Already planning other projects around the house. Highly recommend."

"They did a great job on our floors...but did not fully disclose what all would and would not be done on the facia/sofit replacement. We agreed to add what we thought was included to the scope of work but his workers would never come back and finish to job so we are left to figure it out."

"They helped redesign and build out our kitchen and did a great job. They are reliable, there every day, and notice in advance when they wouldn’t be there. Very respectful of both me and the space, and flexible with the several changes that had to be made."

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

Hi, I’m Austin, owner of Timeless Touches Cabinetry. We specialize in custom cabinetry, built-ins, laundry rooms, mudrooms, entertainment centers, and storage solutions designed specifically for your home and space.\n\nI take a detail-oriented approach to every project, from the initial measurements and design through fabrication and installation. My goal is to provide homeowners with a more personal and flexible experience than mass-produced cabinetry, with thoughtful designs, quality materials, and clear communication throughout the process.\n\nWhether you're looking to replace builder-grade shelving with functional cabinetry, add custom built-ins, or make better use of an underutilized space, I'd be happy to discuss your project and help develop a solution that fits your needs and style.

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

If you don’t have a coping saw, you can use an angle grinder to cope crown molding, but it takes a little more precision. Place your molding down on your workbench, angle the grinder at a 45-degree angle toward the molding, and back cut the wood. You’ll need to carefully angle your grinder to accommodate the curves in the wood, and aim to remove around 1 inch from the profile of the molding.

No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.

Carpentry is a skilled trade and requires many years of experience to acquire the skills necessary to do the job efficiently and correctly. Because every home requires a carpenter at some stage of the building process, carpenters are typically in high demand. The higher the skill level, the higher the hourly rate the carpenter can charge.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.
