"I desperately needed my home to have a facelift. With older homes insulation can be a major problem and old windows and old siding doesn't help with this. I didn't know how to start or where to even begin. When I heard about Vic I thought I would give him a shot. I was beyond impressed with his work ethic and knowledge in this field. He was able to make a plan of what needed to be done, he was very professional through out the process. I had dry rot and he was able to fix this before installing the siding. All in all the work was completed very swiftly, I was able to get new windows and siding for the entire home. The process was so quick and pain free so I'm a beyond grateful and now my home is absolutely beautiful! Thanks Vic!!!!"

"Heath Stairworks did a great job on our stairway. They added a beautiful hand rail and iron spindles. They listened to what we had in mind, made suggestions, and it turned out exactly how we wanted it. I would definitely use them again."

"Look no further. This is the master framer and deck builder you are looking for. Strong communication skills, he has good contacts in lumber world to get fast deliveries and save some money. His crew is very good too. All new tools from what I noticed. Hired Aleksander for an ADU build in Town of Loomis, CA. He was done with 1000 sq ft plus all the changes that came up due to Engineer and bldg inspector. He even agreed to take on extra work. He also did an addition on the main house! Talk about flexible. Fair price. Fast work. Would hire again. Strongly recommend."

"Russ worked with my inspiration photos and made them a reality. His craftsmanship, attention to detail, and communication were excellent. He took the time to work with me on wood choice and color. Russ completely rebuilt our staircase, created a custom mantel, and built a shelf above our washer & dryer. I highly recommend Russ! Thank you again Russ for your expertise."

"This was our first time using Angi, and we ended up with a great company to reface our kitchen. cabinets. They built custom drawer boxes and cabinet door fronts, installed quality hinges and drawer runners, and painted the cabinets inside and out with our color choice. They offered valuable advice on hardware and modifications to a pre-existing cabinet. Pride in their craft was evident as the crew gave 100% every day. They also did their best to arrange their work around our schedules. The worksite was spotless, and even after painting there was no dust or cleanup. Their prices are very competitive. No other cabinet company we consulted offered the options and flexibility that Ben and HomeX provided at a very reasonable price. We highly recommend them. We love our new kitchen!"

"Long Co. did an amazing job in my house with both crown molding and waynes coating. Tbe team was very professional and it was dynamic to see the business owner at the job site each day taking part in the project. Post wood work project, the owner's affiliate, Sam Calagna from Sam Calgna painting, was very detail oriented and did a fantastic job completing the work making the project one that I will sit back and enjoy for years to come. I highly reccomend the duo of Long Co. and Sam Calgna painting. They bring the creativity, vision, and workmanship to create a value added masterpiece in and to the home."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

While carpenters and woodworkers perform similar tasks, their focus differs. A carpenter is typically responsible for the structural woodwork involved in construction, such as framing, installing sheathing, hanging kitchen cabinets, and installing trusses. In contrast, a woodworker handles more intricate and custom projects, like building custom furniture, installing wainscoting, and creating detailed interior trim and moldings. Based on these definitions, many woodworkers can perform the tasks of a carpenter, but it's always best to discuss your specific project with a professional to ensure they have the necessary skills.

Whether or not it’s easier to cut wood when it’s wet versus dry depends largely on the type of tool you use and the wood you’re cutting. For example, a chain saw should still be able to cut through wet wood with relative ease, but it may be more difficult to maneuver due to the wood fibers sticking to the chains of the saw. 

However, you might want to avoid cutting wood entirely when it’s wet if you’re pruning your tree. Sawing a wet tree that you don’t plan on removing can also encourage bacterial and fungal growth and decay.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.
