"Couldn't be more pleased. Enrique responded to my initial inquiry the day I sent it to Angi. He was at my home the next day to preview the work I needed, submitted his proposal within a few hours, and completed the work within a week. The stair railing is exactly how he described it to me and I am completely satisfied with the workmanship. I would definitely recommend Live Oak General Builder, Inc."

"Highly recommend Bayside Builders Group for any backyard remodels. Shai was our PM for a new deck project and he killed it. The craftsmanship on the railings and steps is beautiful, and the whole structure feels rock solid. Shai was super professional but really easygoing and made sure we got exactly what we wanted. Can't wait to host barbecues out here!"

"I needed mildewed furniture that had been in storage six years properly cleaned with 12% hydrogen peroxide.This included two dressers, a bed, and a night table, inside drawers and as well as out. Jonathan was an excellent communicator. He understood the project, bringing up elements I had not thought of. He came to the site twice before doing the job, once to see the project, a second time to make sure the finish would not be adversely affected by the product. He researched the use of the product on metal handles as well. Each time he was prompt, pleasant, and made intelligent suggestions. He and his assistant Maria did a thorough job. I had been looking for the right person for months, Jonathan and Maria were the right people. So glad I found Jonathan. You will be glad you did too!"

"I was trying to pick out plumbing supplies for a difficult sink install. The customer service "expert" couldn't understand the unusual needs for my project and kept saying I could not do what was required. I finally asked him what he would do if he was on a desert island with no "parts kits" to choose from and had to fix the problem. His eyes glazed over... He was lost. Standing nearby was a fellow who offered his thoughts. He LISTENED to the conundrum I was facing and using creative problem solving he recommended a solution. He communicated his thoughts process clearly and his solution worked perfectly. I was impressed. That fellow was Diego. Diego is kind, helpful, thoughtful and easygoing. His kindness was refreshing and I liked his out of the box thinking. He is licensed, insured and reasonably priced. After having a terrible experience with another general contractor recently I was delighted to make his acquaintance and will be calling him shortly to do several projects."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

There are several mistakes you should avoid when using butcher block countertops. Don't place hot pots or pans directly on the surface, as this can crack the wood and cause permanent damage. Avoid leaving wet items sitting on the surface, and wipe up liquids as soon as possible to avoid stains.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

On average, the cost to hire a carpenter ranges from about $75 to $100 per hour, depending on the type of carpentry, location, size of the job, and skill level of the carpenter. Get quotes from at least three carpenters in your area to determine the best price for your specific project.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.
