"I hired R Cabral Contractor for various external dry rot repair around the house including facia boards, window trim, chimney repair, and gutter work. The crew was very professional, arrived on time every day, and were a pleasure to work with. I appreciated working with Rolando as the project progressed and I am very happy with the final result. I recommend R Cabral Contractor Inc and look forward to working with them again on future projects."

"Pat and his crew did an excellent job of patching and painting some holes left by electrical repair. They also painted the entire ceiling and did a good job, and were very flexible about coming in the evening and on weekends. They were fair on price as well."

"I have decades of experience in construction and project management, and these folks are as good as it gets. Are they cheap? No. I wasn't looking for bargains, I was looking for a deck repair that will last longer than I will, and I got it."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

Some states require carpenters to be licensed to perform forms of carpentry, such as framing. The license requires a certain amount of experience and to pass an examination. In states that don’t require carpenters to be licensed, they must be licensed as a contractor if they work independently rather than solely as a subcontractor under a licensed builder. Use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to find out whether a potential carpenter is licensed in your state.

A contract should outline the scope of work, timelines, costs, payment schedule, and materials used for clarity and protection.

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.

Many people, including professionals in the field, use baluster and spindle interchangeably to describe the vertical components of a railing (or technically, a balustrade). However, there are subtle or distinct differences, depending on who you ask. The most common interpretation is that spindles are thin or delicate versions of balusters.
