"Joel is great to work with, forthright, asks questions, listens, and offers advice. We had our manufactured home remodeled. When the job started going sideways with our initial contractor, I started calling around for someone to replace that company. Joel gave us a great bid and had references. He built us a beautiful porch, installed our kitchen cabinets, laid the flooring throughout the house. He referred a great guy to help finish the bathroom tiling, and another to do the painting. There are always delays with any project, but he didn't disappear for days or weeks at a time, he was committed to our project, and would tell us his schedule if he had to be somewhere else. There was constant communication, and if we showed up at the house, he was working. Would highly recommend."

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"We can say that Moriah Remodeling & Construction does get any remodeling project done! Eran and his excellent & professional team worked so efficiently while the painters were able to do a remarkable paint work. They proved to us that they are way much more than other home improvement company much better than what anyone hopes & wish to have. They always were on time, very detailed oriented, accurate & fair estimated, while providing helpful solutions. Eran, on the other hand, did keep his promises and we love it. Eran & the team were friendly, helpful and as minimally noisy as they could. We highly recommend them for any remodeling project such as ours (kitchen and bathrooms remodeling)."

"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."

"Even with such a variety of jobs to get done, everything went smoothly. Beau was a pleasure to work with and scheduling was a breeze. Quality of work was great, with full cleanup done as well. It's been a year since the work was done and I'm going back to him for another round of rework on my 60 year old fixer upper."

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.

Before hiring a carpenter, the most important thing is to make sure they are properly qualified and insured for the job. It’s more than reasonable to ask your prospective carpenter for customer references, as well as about their licensing and insurance. You should also consider choosing a carpenter that specializes in your specific project area to ensure high-quality results. 

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.

Floor joists provide support and stability to the flooring installed above them, whether it be hardwood, tile, or carpet. They’re essentially horizontal beams that hold up the subfloor and everything that lies on top of it. Floor joists also help evenly distribute weight across their structure so that it’s shared between walls, beams, and your foundation.

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.
