"Tom came out and quoted the project, and promptly came back in less than a week to complete the job. His knowledge about construction and standards were just what I needed. My hot water heater door was an exterior door that required venting, and Tom made a return trip to install the grate, and wouldn’t charge me, even though I felt it wasn’t fair to Tom. I will use Tom for any future projects."

"The remodel of our 3 bathrooms came out great! Mike Duran did a tremendous job throughout the entire process. Mike was extremely professional, knowledgeable and most importantly, seemed to truly care about insuring that we were comfortable and well taken care of. Mike was either at our home or communicating with us by phone or text on a daily basis which was very comforting. There was never a time where we weren't informed of the process and the next steps. The entire remodels were completed on a timely manner with no surprises. He also insured that everyone on his staff treated our home with respect. Mike is a very respectful and honest person and I would not hesitate in hiring him for future projects."

"Project completed very satisfactorily on a timely manner. Sylvain and his assistance Robin are highly professional and delightful workers. They demo and replaced old patio deck steps front and back and added a 3rd room to my Mobil home on a golf course. After the job is done, they left the work place very clean. I strongly recommend them to anyone needing expert carpenters providing good estimates and excellent workmanship. I gave them 5 stars for a great job well done!!! Adey"

"Joel and his crew at Green Light Building replaced termite damaged wood at my house. Joel answered my request for a free quote that day and with 2 days, came to my house and I had a detailed quote for labor and materials. He then kept in touch to let me know which days and how long the job would take. It was beautifully done, on time as per quote. Friendly and efficient workers!!"

"I have hired Luke to work on a 1986 house I recently bought. I needed a handyman that could deal with the issues and complications that come with an older home. He has performed well and professionally.i can see working with him for years to come. He has done so much work that was not listed he made built in undercounter storage cubby with a framed door. He has hung doors. Put up andresized fire doors. He built walls and installed lights. He moved anf onstalled new light switches and outlets. He is installing a new shower in 3 bathrooms and hew exhaust fans He has installed vanity sink in the bathroom and this is just a few of the things. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a honest local small business owner contractor. Someone trustworthy and a person who works for himself and not a big corporation is important to me."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Hiring a woodworker can be expensive, depending on the job, but it’s very often well worth the investment. Woodworkers are able to provide custom pieces of furniture and handmade construction to present a finished product that is exactly to your specifications. If you have a specific vision for a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture or home feature, the cost of hiring a professional woodworker is worthwhile. Plus, you’ll often get a higher quality product than what you could buy in stores for a fraction of the price.

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.

Most contractors do not charge for meetings, but it can depend on the project, mainly if it includes detailed consultations or project planning. For general estimates, homeowners shouldn't expect to be charged. Always ask up front about meeting fees to avoid surprises and ensure you know what’s included in the process.

Carpentry is a skilled trade and requires many years of experience to acquire the skills necessary to do the job efficiently and correctly. Because every home requires a carpenter at some stage of the building process, carpenters are typically in high demand. The higher the skill level, the higher the hourly rate the carpenter can charge.

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.
