"Southern Rust Woodworks has the best custom built products around. I have several pieces he has made for me, and I get asked all the time who did them and how to contact him. He can make anything you want! Or if you donâ t have an idea, he has great ideas himself. My house is basically a Southern Rust Woodworks showcase. Love all my pieces and they are excellent quality. Love all his products!!!"

"Ron uses USA wood rather than cheaper imported wood. He paints/stains the fence with a sprayer which provides a solid color. He does what he says he will do and did not require any payment until his work was finished."

"This is to express my wife and I sincere appreciation for the exceptional work Mark Daly and the family owned business ( DALY STONE DESIGN. LLP ) recently completed on the remodeling of our living room fireplace. Our initial consultation with Mark (owner) we felt a genuine connection and trust, Mark and his entire team professionalism combined with your evident dedication to quality craftsmanship put our minds at ease throughout the entire process. Finally, the fireplace is a showstopper. It has completely modernized our living room and has become a favorite gathering spot for our family, We were very fortunate to have had Mark as our contractor and are happy to serve as a reference for any future clients."

"Eugenio did a BEAUTIFUL job restoring two precious pieces of furniture that have been in my family for over 100+ years. This furniture had been neglected for generations and was in very bad condition (broken, moldy, etc.). I thought there was no hope for restoration and was afraid it would have to be thrown away. My restored furniture was delivered yesterday and I could not believe how beautiful the furniture looks. An amazing job by someone with true talent and a love of antiques. Eugenio took 5 more pieces of furniture to restore for me. I can’t wait to see the results."

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.

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.

Many people, including professionals in the field, use baluster and spindle interchangeably to describe the vertical components of a railing (or technically, a balustrade). However, there are subtle or distinct differences, depending on who you ask. The most common interpretation is that spindles are thin or delicate versions of balusters.

A contract should outline the scope of work, timelines, costs, payment schedule, and materials used for clarity and protection.

While you can perform many routine home maintenance jobs yourself, it’s often a good idea to bring pros in for certain tasks. HVAC maintenance, fireplace and chimney inspections, foundation repairs, and roof inspections and repairs should be handled by professionals who know what to look for and can safely perform repairs. You may also find it helpful to hire a local house cleaning service to help with deep cleaning.
