"It was the Best! Jacques, the owner of C. & M Cabinets, always gives you the Best results. He is a true craftsman. Jacques, and the men who work for him, are all the Best any homeowner could want. In 10 years Jacques and his men installed a new kitchen, and 3 new bathrooms in our home. From flooring, to plumbing, electrical, tile & counter tops and breathtaking cabinets (what Jacques makes & installs) and painting. Jacques enthusiasm and expertise is a joy to work with! His communication is great, always easy to get hold of. Jacques is always on time too. A rarity for contractors! He will help you design the project too if you wish. Jacques' workers are also punctual and friendly and they are total professionals and experts in their field."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Jose Pajares and his team at Home Care and Repair for custom built-in cabinets in our family room, as well as repairs and replacements after fire damage in our kitchen. I cannot speak highly enough of their professionalism and craftsmanship. From the very beginning, Jose and his team impressed us with their punctuality and attention to detail. They arrived on time for each appointment, and their work ethic was exemplary. Throughout the project, they maintained a clean and organized workspace, ensuring minimal disruption to our daily routine. When it comes to their trade, Jose and his team are true artists. The custom built-in cabinets in our family room are a testament to their skill and creativity. They seamlessly integrated the cabinets into the existing design, matching it perfectly to our kitchen aesthetics. The attention to detail was astonishing, and the end result exceeded our expectations. Additionally, the repairs to our kitchen cabinets and the replacement of our granite countertops were executed flawlessly. Jose and his team handled the fire damage with utmost care, restoring our kitchen to its former glory. The new countertops fit seamlessly, and the quality of the workmanship is evident. Overall, I highly recommend Home Care and Repair. Their professionalism, timeliness, and attention to detail set them apart. If you're in need of custom cabinetry or repair work, you won't find a better team to work with. They truly are masters of their craft."

"We enjoyed working with Denali National Construction, including Victor and Mayra (the owners), and their great team! Victor is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. This company was referred to us by Angi to replace three fascia boards (required removing and reinstalling roof tiles and waterproof paper in order to replace two of the fascia boards) and a wooden side-gate. Victor was able to meet me, provided me his written quote, and scheduled to start our project within a very short time. Victor and his team showed up on time and completed the project within the scheduled timeframe with an excellent quality workmanship. We would definitely use this company again for our future projects. We were very pleased and highly recommend this company!"

"Mike is hands down the best contractor we have ever worked with!! He did a full tear down and rebuild of our staircase as well a a few other major projects. He is a true master at his craft! He was timely, finished the project per plan and budget. He also has other contractors he coordinates with who were fantastic. He even built a gate for my kids while the staircase was down ( we still have it up because itâ s so cute) you wonâ t find many contractors that take things like that into consideration. If youâ re going to have a contractor in your home you want to feel comfortable, youâ ll get that with Mike and a very beautiful project in the end. Our stairs are the first thing you see when you walk in and we get compliments on them constantly!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.

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.

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. 

Board and batten is a type of wainscotting that uses wider boards that are placed vertically, and it has a much more rustic aesthetic than wainscotting. Common wainscotting styles are raised-panel, flat-panel, and beadboard. Wainscotting is more intricate and will typically use more elegant, subtle trims compared to the more farmhouse-inspired boards of board and batten styles.

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.
