"We recently had custom built-in bookshelves designed and installed by CT Yankee Crafts, and we couldn't be happier. From start to finish, the experience was an absolute pleasure. Nick was very communicative throughout the whole process, and he listened to our vision, then translated it onto paper and then into a beautiful masterpiece and a focal point in our new home. The best part is filling them up! Watching our book collection find its new home on these gorgeous, sturdy shelves has been so satisfying. It has completely transformed the room into a cozy sanctuary. Highly recommended for any custom woodwork!"

"If I could hire Sayed for every future project in my house, I would! When other folks say they wonâ t end the job until the homeowner is happy, they never mean itâ ¦ but Sayed does. He made and installed gorgeous built-in cabinets/shelves in our den and replaced our fireplace surround with marble. The quality of his work is 10 out of 10 and his professionalism is an 11 out of 10. Heâ s genuinely a wonderful person who always does right by his customers. Whether itâ s installing a few extra bits of moulding to hide some speaker wires I forgot to tell him about, gifting us a stud finder when I commented on how cool his was, or bringing us treats back from Lebanon, Sayed was always thinking of ways to make the project enjoyable and special for us. My only request of Sayed is to learn how to install pools because thatâ s my next major project and I wish he could lead the project for me! TLDR: best contractor youâ ll ever hire!"

"They fixed a retaining stone wall. I had no idea how long it was going to take. It only took one and a half days. They work fast and efficiently and the wall looks better than it has for more than 60 years. Their price is extremely reasonable. I talked with Marco about doing other jobs that need to be done for this house and he said they could do them all. And his prices again were reasonable. When I am ready to have these other projects done, I will definitely call him."

"Matt has done multiple projects for me, including kitchen cabinet refacing, applying new kitchen tile, kitchen floor and all new inside doors. Everything was done timely and with excellence. Matt gave me an estimate and stayed within budget. He arrives on time and cleans up as he works. He is very polite and takes the time to answer questions completely. While he was here for my door replacement, I asked him if he could install a flag on my house, that would require a base built where it attached to the house. He completed it by improvising a beautiful custom wood mount for the flag. I highly recommend Matt for any project you may have."

"I hires Aldo to remodel my kitchen and he completed the work in record time! He was very detail oriented, working meticulously to ensure that even the smallest details were done correctly. The kitchen model design and the actual kitchen were identical down to every measurement. Very impressive! Extremely happy with the kitchen remodeling. I highly recommend if you want the job done right."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Balusters provide vertical support to make sure your stair railing and/or deck is as sturdy and safe as possible. These spindles help hold up the railing so people walking up or down stairs have something strong to hold onto. They can also act as a unique design element if they’re custom-made to suit a specific style or size requirement.

Homeowners insurance may cover damaged floor joists, depending on your policy. Insurance typically covers issues from storms, fires, or water damage from burst pipes. However, don't expect your insurance company to cover damage from wear and tear, poor maintenance, or termites.

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.
