"We were in need of some crown molding for our house. We were delighted to see the great reviews for Kennedy Kraft and decided to contact Seamus for a free consultation. We received a great quote, however Seamus was high in demand, so we had to wait several weeks before Seamus could start the work. Yet the wait was worth it, as Seamus did a superior quality install of the crown molding in our house. It turned out AWESOME! Seamus is as friendly and nice as the day is long. Which are wonderful traits for someone working inside your home for big and long projects. Yet you could not ask for better customer service than Seamus provided to us. We plan to use him for some of our future woodwork projects."

"Luis understood what I needed. He made good suggestions. He moved some big pieces of furniture for me, assembled a pantry and a complicated bed, laid out tarps outside to protect items from rain and wind, and replaced a bathroom faucet. With his experience and skills he can do a variety of jobs. His estimates and prices are very reasonable. Luis is reliable, kind, and thoughtful. I will book him again. I highly recommend Luis."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

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.

While you may have heard people use millwork and carpentry interchangeably, they aren’t the same. Millwork is a type of carpentry, which means that carpentry isn’t always millwork. You can tell millwork apart from other types of carpentry because it’s manufactured at a mill. Notably, casework is also confused with millwork. Casework is different because it refers to boxes like cabinets and bookshelves.

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.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

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.
