"Extremely happy with the work Ryan and his team did in our 17 yr old home. We replaced the front door and all interior doors plus hardware, the baseboards and door trim, painted four bedrooms and bathrooms plus all the doors and trim, hung new bathroom mirrors and replaced the medicine cabinets. We also repainted our existing glass doors and trim to match the new front door. In the laundry room we replaced cabinet facing, countertop and sink, plus paint. Our home didnâ t need structural work, but this surface refresh has made it look some much more modern and up to date. Ryan is very easy to work with, is an excellent communicator and delivers on his contract. He creates line-item contracts that allow for transparency and easy decision making. I already had some other work under contract when I found Ryan and he was very flexible and accommodating about working with the existing plan and the other contractorsâ delays and issues. Everything one wants in a contractor that can be hard to find. Highly recommended."

"Brett and his team did fantastic work! The first job was repairing a balcony that was suffering from water intrusion. The 2nd job was installing/framing out sunroom windows that would actually open and close; turning the sunroom into a functional space (instead of a sauna). It is been great to walk-in there and enjoy my morning coffee! Highly recommend and very satisfied with Brett’s work."

"Creations Construction completely transformed our kitchen and living room in Encinitas. The open-concept design they helped create made our home feel twice as big. Everyone from the designer to the crew was polite and professional. We’ve already recommended them to two neighbors!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

The boards between floor joists are called bridging or blocking boards. These are the shortest pieces of wood in the flooring system—with beams being the longest and joists sitting somewhere in the middle—and they serve to reinforce the joists and help provide even support to the flooring above. Bridging specifically helps cut down on uneven and creaking floors in your living area.

Rustic and modern farmhouse styles are currently the most popular. These include rustic and antique furniture, muted colors, clean lines, eclectic decor, and natural materials. Some other popular farmhouse styles include the following:

  • Coastal farmhouse: Creates a lighter, airier feel with soft colors and blue palettes, along with gold

  • Colonial farmhouse: Focuses on real antique furniture and decor

  • French farmhouse: Leans on French country architecture and design by including marble and lighter-colored metals, like zinc

  • Industrial farmhouse: Includes thick, chunky furniture and dark metals

  • Scandinavian farmhouse: Usually includes lighter wood colors and more refined furniture

If you don’t have a coping saw, you can use an angle grinder to cope crown molding, but it takes a little more precision. Place your molding down on your workbench, angle the grinder at a 45-degree angle toward the molding, and back cut the wood. You’ll need to carefully angle your grinder to accommodate the curves in the wood, and aim to remove around 1 inch from the profile of the molding.

You don’t need a cutting board. In fact, cutting is the original purpose of butcher block countertops. That said, wood is porous and can harbor germs. You’ll need to clean your countertop thoroughly after use. Knives can also scratch the surface. This adds to the patina of the wood, but not everyone likes the look—in which case, you may want to use a cutting board.
