"It went well, my old school bathroom was updated. I now have an awesome bathroom with a walk in shower, the tile work is gorgeous. I just love it! In my other bathroom the fixtures were changed and an extra door was replaced with a wall. I can’t even tell where the door was. Michael and his crew did an excellent job. I would definitely recommend if you care about quality."

"Diamond K Wooworks is the BEST! My daughter Jamie got married and wanted a sign the "log" for guests to sign instead of guest book. Jamie and her husband are in the Army. This is where sign the log came from.. we had some tree logs we found while on vacation in Pinecrest. Once we brought them to the valley they split and dried out. 2 days before the wedding I frantically was looking for a log.. This is where Diamond K Woodworks comes in to the picture. I contacted Dustin, he had me come to his shop and see if anything he had would work for us. He had these beautiful pieces of wood for me to pick from at this shop. Saving the day! Our wedding guest got to sign the log. We have now sealed it and are making into a bench fir them to sit on. Dustin saves the day!!! He is first class, honest, and great at response time of returning calls. I've even seen him at a huge demolition job site of groves of trees he had to remove. Don't wait and call him now!!"

"Daniel and Lindsay were always on time, excellent communication, and very reliable. They did a great job replacing our wood porch/decking/staircase with Trex composite decking. They also replaced a section of our driveway with brick paving which looks really good. I would highly recommend them and definitely use them again."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

Most landscape timbers are 8 feet long, but some are also available in 10-foot and 12-foot lengths. Choose the length that will allow you to install landscape timbers using the least amount of cutting to fit. Shorter timbers will allow you to more easily create angles and shorter plant bed sides.

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.
