"We had a great experience using HomeAdvisor by Angi to find a contractor for our deck/porch project. The platform made it easy to compare professionals, and we were matched with someone who was punctual, skilled, and delivered high-quality work. The process from start to finish was smooth, and we’re very happy with the outcome. Highly recommend for anyone looking to take on a home improvement project with confidence!"

"We hired Trimble Construction and Custom Painting for many projects. The first job was the kitchen renovation which was done exactly as we wanted. We have since had them take care of the horrible ceiling cracks in our living room and vestibule and paint both rooms. They also installed handrails on the staircase to the upper level. In the backyard they replaced the deck and a 80ft long wooden walkway. All the work has been completed within the agreed costs and are a pleasure to look at. The finished improvements and workmanship make our house more comfortable and welcoming. "

"Not only did Eddie and Yesenia take care of our framing they also assisted us with finish carpentry and complete installation of the cabinetry. We were skeptical to hire them because they are a very new company but once we met them and understood Eddie’s decades of experience and their family oriented business we were very comforted. We also were helping our aging parents make their house comfy and safe to live their remaining years. MW was the only GC that aimed to please and work within our budgets. They also advised and predicted other costs that might arise so we could budget for it. At the end of the day the work was done timely and expertly. I wish the very best for this amazing family. They have truly become friends of mine. I an so grateful for what they have done for our parents. Thank you Eddie, Yesenia, and Lalo!!!!"

"We hired McCormick Home Builders to remodel our living room, and we are beyond pleased with the result. The team was professional, worked efficiently, and Aris design ideas made a huge difference. The room feels so much brighter and more spacious. This was the best decision we made for our home, and we were already planning our next remodel with them."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

While carpenters and woodworkers perform similar tasks, their focus differs. A carpenter is typically responsible for the structural woodwork involved in construction, such as framing, installing sheathing, hanging kitchen cabinets, and installing trusses. In contrast, a woodworker handles more intricate and custom projects, like building custom furniture, installing wainscoting, and creating detailed interior trim and moldings. Based on these definitions, many woodworkers can perform the tasks of a carpenter, but it's always best to discuss your specific project with a professional to ensure they have the necessary skills.

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.

There are two ways you can cut trim for doorways: with a miter saw or a table saw. Mitered joints need a 45-degree angle. If you’re unfamiliar with a miter saw, you might want to consider buying extra trim pieces or choosing butted joints instead. One wrong cut, and you’ll need to power up the saw again with a new piece. 

Butted joints—also called shaker style—don’t need a 45-degree angle. Instead, your side pieces attach perpendicularly to the header trim and only require a straight cut.

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.

Balusters provide vertical support to make sure your stair railing and/or deck is as sturdy and safe as possible. These spindles help hold up the railing so people walking up or down stairs have something strong to hold onto. They can also act as a unique design element if they’re custom-made to suit a specific style or size requirement.
