"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."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

There are two ways you can cut trim for doorways: with a miter saw or a table saw. Mitered joints need a 45-degree angle. If you’re unfamiliar with a miter saw, you might want to consider buying extra trim pieces or choosing butted joints instead. One wrong cut, and you’ll need to power up the saw again with a new piece. 

Butted joints—also called shaker style—don’t need a 45-degree angle. Instead, your side pieces attach perpendicularly to the header trim and only require a straight cut.

Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.

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.

On average, the cost to hire a carpenter ranges from about $75 to $100 per hour, depending on the type of carpentry, location, size of the job, and skill level of the carpenter. Get quotes from at least three carpenters in your area to determine the best price for your specific project.

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.
