"This is the second time I’ve booked with Zabi & he has been amazing. The reason we booked him this time was because of his great first impression last time! He will always be who we call for any home needs. He has now built us a dresser, mounted a tv and built and mounted a wall shelf to go under a tv. The whole time he’s here working he is super friendly and helpful & very attentive to detail as well as making sure you are involved in the process to ensure you like the final product. Highly recommend booking him! He also loves animals, even has his own dog who is super cute that he has in his truck!"

"I was missing one of the original sliding bedroom closet doors from my house built in 1952 and the tracking for the doors was irreparably damaged,/ One of the doors was damaged on the back side facing the clothes. AC Wood Furniture built two new doors that matched the old one and painted them per my insruction. They put in neew and improved tracks and installed them. All for a very reasonable price."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

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.

General contractors use subcontractors to complete specific parts of a construction project. For example, a general contractor might have construction experience but need a subcontractor to install plumbing lines in a new home.

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.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry.
