"Jose went beyond professional treatment. He made sure everything was aligned even the adjoining drawers and cabinet doors. He installed very happy with his work. I’ll hire him again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Jose."

"Great experience with Armada Construction! Ivan and his crew were fast, reliable and trustworthy. We hired them for an extensive bathroom remodel and loved how careful and respectful they were with our home and pets. They never left our gate open and always took time to greet our dog:) They brought our bathroom vision to life. They moved toilet, shower and vanity locations and did a beautiful installation with our tile. Definitely recommend this crew!"

"Allwyn was super responsive and collaborative. He worked with us to design the final solution (a unique shaped concrete pad with stamp design) which ended up being much less expensive and much more beautiful and functional than the original plan (a wood deck). He went beyond what was asked to make sure he and we would be proud of the result. Allwyn asked great questions, attended to detail, and offered creative changes. We had some challenges with an electrician Allwyn subcontracted. The electrician missed some appointments. Ultimately, the work was completed and the quality was excellent. I look forward to working with Allwyn again."

"I had just moved into a new house and needed an entertainment center built into a niche in my living room. Through lots of research I found Paul from McClintock Cabinet. Paul came highly recommended on Angie's List (unfortunately, not Yelp reviews so fixing that now) so I reached out. Paul was on vacation but still corresponded with me through email. Sent pictures of what I had at my current home and some drawings of what I thought would work well in my new home and Paul corresponded his thoughts and some rough estimates. Communication throughout the entire experience was excellent! When Paul was back in town we made arrangements to meet at the new house just before escrow closed. Paul measured everything about 10 times (mark it twice - cut it one) and took a lot of notes. Paul also made it a point to document the design of the kitten cabinets so he could match the doors and drawers on the entertainment center as closely as possible. We sat down and finalized a design and I provided a down payment and off Paul went to build my new entertainment center. Paul expected that it would take about 5 weeks to build and he delivered within the timeframe promised. On installation day Paul arrived on time with he team and went to work installing the unit. Paul's team was extremely cautious about not damaging anything in the home. Lots of tarps and blanket we laid down. More measurements where taken for light switches and outlets and last minuet adjustments were made. About 4 hours later may new entertainment center had been installed and it was awesome. The doors and drawers matched the kitchen cabinets perfectly. Not close... A perfect match. The finish was amazing and color was also a perfect match to everything else in the house. The unit matched the design and accommodated all the components just right. Paul and his team then helped to mount the TV, which was an unexpected bonus and then cleaned up and left me wire and connect all of the equipment. Paul did a great job and I can't recommend him enough for any household cabinetry."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

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.

The pro you need to hire to build your shed depends on the shed you purchase. A local handyman or general contractor can help build a prefab shed for you. However, if you’re looking for a custom shed, contacting a shed builder near you is the best option. Make sure you get quotes from 3 pros to decide on the best pro for your job. 

If you’re just replacing a few broken or damaged joists, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 per joist. However, a complete installation for a home or room will take into account the cost of labor, which ranges from $25 to $40 per hour. Floor joist installation for an entire room, for example, can cost between $5,000 and $10,000, depending on the room's size and the materials used.
