"We could not be happier with our new kitchen. It is beautiful! Our project, completed during the pandemic, had lots of challenges, including a slow and difficult insurance claim approval process, out-of-state supply chain delays, and other issues. The owner, Matt Simmons was great in keeping us updated and responding to our calls/texts. He is a highly ethical person who approaches his work, and the work of his staff, with integrity and professionalism. I highly recommend Simmons Cabinets."

"Heath Stairworks did a great job on our stairway. They added a beautiful hand rail and iron spindles. They listened to what we had in mind, made suggestions, and it turned out exactly how we wanted it. I would definitely use them again."

"John did an amazing job. He came in the day we called him to measure and recommend crown molding for our old home. A day and a half later, our house was transformed and looked 10 years younger! He also went above and beyond to cover challenging corners and built in book shelves. If you need crown molding help, Crowning Touch is the best in Sacramento!"

"I was lucky to have my job scheduled in between rainy and dry periods and got the job scheduled before the summer season got going. Steven, the estimator & project manager, communicated extremely well and was very reliable. The woodwork was done quickly by highly skilled carpenters. There were several days of waiting the rain out, but that was unavoidable. Painting prep took several days because of the poor condition of the weathered surfaces. There were a lot of stucco cracks that had to be sanded down that I had put caulk over originally. There was additional work done after more dry rot was discovered on my garage roof. The price and little extras of the job was extremely fair."

"We did not end up hiring him (complications with our realtor) but man is he a great guy and very prompt and well-versed in his field! Came out two days before Christmas despite family being in town and we could not have asked for a better experience. If you need section 1 home fixes, this is the guy for you!!"

"We've worked with many contractors and found that good communication between customer and contractor is the most important component of client satisfaction. We are very satisfied with the kitchen remodel done by Ben and his team from HomeX. Communication was great and, most important, they did what they said they'd do, when he said they'd do it. The pricing was fair and best of all, we got to choose every little detail and customize the materials and layout. The workers were clean and efficient and the work was good quality. Would definitely hire him again."

"Long Co. did an amazing job in my house with both crown molding and waynes coating. Tbe team was very professional and it was dynamic to see the business owner at the job site each day taking part in the project. Post wood work project, the owner's affiliate, Sam Calagna from Sam Calgna painting, was very detail oriented and did a fantastic job completing the work making the project one that I will sit back and enjoy for years to come. I highly reccomend the duo of Long Co. and Sam Calgna painting. They bring the creativity, vision, and workmanship to create a value added masterpiece in and to the home."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

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.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.
