"Very fast, smooth and a fine job overall.  He only took two days.  Much faster than I had anticipated.  I would recommend him to anyone and should I build something else, I would only go to Jim.  He does great work and is willing to make a change at the last moment if he can to accommodate a new idea.

"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."

"Work was done quickly and professionally in Arkansas while I was directing in Louisiana. Great communication, photos exchanged, prior to starting and after completion. Payment options were abundant and instant. I could not say enough good things about everyone involved-dispatch, coordination, actual work, payments -communication was by phone, text messages, and email documents. Thanks!"

"My husband and I are in our 70's and have never used Angi. We needed some work done that we weren't physically able to do. We entered our information on Sunday night, received a call on Monday morning and Mr. Riley and a co-worker came by to see what was going on. They came back that same afternoon and replaced the three porch posts that were rotten on the bottom from sitting on the concrete. They stained the posts and cleaned up our yard. They were professional, personable and very kind. I am so proud to have this problem fixed and so proud that it looks so good. They suggested that we have the posts stained to match the wood trim on our house instead of painted like they were. So glad we took their suggestion. Thank you so much."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

While you may have heard people use millwork and carpentry interchangeably, they aren’t the same. Millwork is a type of carpentry, which means that carpentry isn’t always millwork. You can tell millwork apart from other types of carpentry because it’s manufactured at a mill. Notably, casework is also confused with millwork. Casework is different because it refers to boxes like cabinets and bookshelves.

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.

Most contractors do not charge for meetings, but it can depend on the project, mainly if it includes detailed consultations or project planning. For general estimates, homeowners shouldn't expect to be charged. Always ask up front about meeting fees to avoid surprises and ensure you know what’s included in the process.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Floor joists provide support and stability to the flooring installed above them, whether it be hardwood, tile, or carpet. They’re essentially horizontal beams that hold up the subfloor and everything that lies on top of it. Floor joists also help evenly distribute weight across their structure so that it’s shared between walls, beams, and your foundation.
