"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."

"I hired R Cabral Contractor for various external dry rot repair around the house including facia boards, window trim, chimney repair, and gutter work. The crew was very professional, arrived on time every day, and were a pleasure to work with. I appreciated working with Rolando as the project progressed and I am very happy with the final result. I recommend R Cabral Contractor Inc and look forward to working with them again on future projects."

"Very efficient and responsive, and high quality work and expertise. I needed to hire a carpenter to modify the kitchen cabinet height space for a new refrigerator to replace an older refrigerator that had stopped working. So it was a critical need, and during the holidays. I got a text back immediately and Eddie came to assess the space the next day. A week later, as soon as l made the new refrigerator purchase and therefore knew the measurements, l texted the specs and they were able to schedule the work for the next morning. It looks beautiful and the new refrigerator fits perfectly! I learned more about the cabinets and it was a bit more complicated than it appeared since there was some extra layers of wood to cut—they did a beautiful job! I will definitely give Mighty Works a call for my next project!"

"From the beginning to the end of my project, was professional and meticulous! Although we had unexpected delays due to supply chain issues Larry was there to figure it out and make it work and get it done. From the listening and planning of what I wanted to the end result is perfect. My kitchen is now what I thought I wanted but more… he customized everything to what I wanted down to the drawer heights for cookware and cooking supplies. I always knew when he would arrive and leave with the team and communication of the project was amazing. With a full remodel he even made sure I had a cooking heat source throughout the project. Attention to details shows in his final work and I absolutely love my kitchen, even 2 years later there is nothing I would have done different because Larry made sure it was right the first time!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

The boards between floor joists are called bridging or blocking boards. These are the shortest pieces of wood in the flooring system—with beams being the longest and joists sitting somewhere in the middle—and they serve to reinforce the joists and help provide even support to the flooring above. Bridging specifically helps cut down on uneven and creaking floors in your living area.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

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.
