"Don Hall and his crew showed professionalism beyond any of the stonework contractors I hired before. They were prompt and on time every morning at 0800 or earlier, they worked the full day, did great work, communicative, made materials pickup, recommendations, and cleaned up everything after the job. So impressed that I gave them a bonus to their very fair job quote. I cannot recommend his team enough, and plan to do other work with him in the near future."

"Sean put in the extra effort into a difficult installation. That included a trip to Home Depot for a special fitting as well as accommodating some design changes. We would definitely use Precision again."

"I hired Founder's Renovation to replace a bathtub, repair the surrounding walls, and tile the shower, and I’m very happy with how everything turned out. Thomas was easy to work with, explained what needed to be done in plain terms, and didn’t try to upsell or overcomplicate anything. The tub install was clean, the wall repairs blended in nicely, and the tile work looks great. He showed up when he said he would and kept the area tidy, which I really appreciated. Overall, solid work, fair pricing, and no stress. I would definitely call Founder's Renovation again."

A huge shoutout to Francisco—he was absolutely amazing to work with. He truly listened to what I wanted and offered expert advice that made the final result even better than I imagined. Thank you for the great work!"

"We had an image of a bathroom vanity, and Ron came to measure and talk through the project, then sent drawings of what the plan was. (He even shopped around for us to see if he could find one for purchase to save us some money.) The delivered product looks great. (We're doing the finishing and installation ourselves.)"

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.

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.

Some states require carpenters to be licensed to perform forms of carpentry, such as framing. The license requires a certain amount of experience and to pass an examination. In states that don’t require carpenters to be licensed, they must be licensed as a contractor if they work independently rather than solely as a subcontractor under a licensed builder. Use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to find out whether a potential carpenter is licensed in your state.

Landscape timbers can last 10 to 20 years in the ground when installed correctly. Pressure-treated timbers will last longer than non-treated ones, as pressure treatment makes the wood more rot-resistant. Wood exposed to high moisture levels or extreme temperature and weather fluctuations may not last as long as wood in drier areas with more consistent weather.

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.
