Should general contractors be certified or licensed?

<div>While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">state licensing tool</a> to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: <ul><li>The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check</li><li>Required to have applicable state and local licenses</li><li>Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review</li><li>Paying to advertise their services</li><li>Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi</li></ul>Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.</div>

How do I choose the best woodworker for my home project?

<div>Every woodworker has different skills and experience, so we recommend asking the following questions when hiring a woodworker for your project:<ul><li>How long have you been in the woodworking industry?</li><li>What experience do you have with my type of project?</li><li>Do you have customer references I can speak with?</li><li>How long do you expect my project to take?</li><li>What is my recourse if I have an issue with your work?</li><li>Do you charge hourly or per project?</li><li>Will you work on-site or in your own workshop?</li><li>Does your fee include the necessary post-job clean-up?</li></ul></div>

What is the difference between a woodworker and a carpenter?

<div>While they perform similar tasks, a carpenter is responsible for the woodworking that goes into construction—like framing, installing sheathing, and hanging kitchen cabinets—while a woodworker tackles more intricate and custom projects—like building custom furniture and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-wainscoting.htm">installing wainscoting</a>. Based on these definitions, most woodworkers can tackle the jobs of a carpenter, but you should always ask about your specific project when choosing a woodworker to ensure they have the necessary skills to tackle the job.</div>

The carpenter did an awesome job, plus had to dig up a couple of "old" floor tiles and replace it with new tile. It looks as though it has always been there! Very happy with the work and professionalism of the carpenter!

Called and arranged with them. They came out a few days later, did all the work in about 2 hours. I was pleased with the results and the service. Pricing was good as well.

Custom millwork such as mantels, tub surrounds, crown moulding and custom framing were part of our project and he did a great job. We had a lot of tricky and unusual problems to solve to make this remodel work and Tom found ways to make it work.I can not say enough good things about this company.

It was a positive experience. They did excellent work. Their prices were very expensive. Remodeling is harder than building a house from scratch. It is harder to find people in that line of work. Cornerstone does remodeling, makes cabinets and fixes mistakes in old buildings. They put in a...
