"We have used Ryan and Neal (Precision Cabinetry) twice now. the first time was 5 years ago when they did our modern kitchen. They were on a budget and the finished product is gorgeous (we think). We were able to get the details we wanted, like dovetailed birch drawers. Having had such a good experience, we used them again recently for our laundry room. They presented a number of finishes based on our requests, and we finally decided on gloss white. It came out amazing! They are easy to work with, clean and professional!"

"Mr. Flores did an excellent job in solving a door problem that I thought was not salvageable . He also did an excellent job on the floor boards that were so loud it was embarrassing having company. Now there not a squeak to be heard. I Highly recommend Mr. Flores For any general contracting work."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

Homeowners insurance may cover damaged floor joists, depending on your policy. Insurance typically covers issues from storms, fires, or water damage from burst pipes. However, don't expect your insurance company to cover damage from wear and tear, poor maintenance, or termites.

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.

Labor plays a significant role in the installation of butcher block countertops. Depending on who you hire, your location, the customization level of the project, and whether the wood is already finished, you may pay a professional between $10 and $150 per square foot to install a butcher block countertop. On average, expect the per-hour price to run between $60 and $100.

Many contractors prefer checks because they’re easy to track and have no associated fees. However, many also accept credit cards (though they might add a fee to cover their processing costs).

If you don’t have a power saw with a blade where you can adjust the angle, you could use a miter box and hand saw to make the cuts. The miter box contains wide slots to support the piece of baseboard and other narrow slots to accommodate the blade of the hand saw. However, it’s tough to make non-standard cuts beyond 30 or 45 degrees when using a miter box.
