"Chrystian installed crown molding throughout our entire house. It looks absolutely beautiful. There were some tricky spots around the doorways and air vents where there was very little room. Chrystian meticulously worked around these problems and it looks like a perfect custom design. Pricing was fair, workmanship was excellent and the finished product is top quality. We are very pleased with the outcome and highly recommend his company Angelletta Inc."

"Great customer service. Excellent work workmanship. We have a vary large wall for our Television, and could not find anything that would look right in the space for a entertainment center. Vera Custom woodworking worked with our custom needs. We absolutely love our beautiful cabinets and countertop. Beauty, and all the storage space now. We will have them back to install new kitchen countertops and cut down the bar height counter to bring out kitchen up to date. We highly recommend Vera Custom woodworking."

"Robert, Did some custom wood work for an antique bed that my fiance and her late father refurbished together. This bed is now the showpiece in our guest room, and we are very grateful to Robert for that. He also made a beautiful one of kind wood and glass two-stage credenza to display the wine glass and decanters at a venue that I manage in Sarasota. We get compliments all the time on this beautiful piece. In short, Robert is professional, creative, takes in your vision, and will complete the project in the time frame that he promises. I would highly recommend him to anyone; his craftsmanship as a carpenter is second-to-none."

"I cannot praise these guys enough. They installed an interior door , some cabinets and laid flooring quickly and neatly. I was surprised when they even painted the new door which I fully expected to have to do myself. They went out of their way to be sure everything was jut the way I wanted it down to the littlest detail. I cannot recommend this company enough. Prices are reasonable as well!"

"Angel has now helped me with the layout/design and install of three kitchens (all cabinetry, integrated appliances) as well as custom millwork, custom closet organizers and more. Anyone who has hired a contractor before knows how critical it is to have someone who cares about their quality, who communicates well and who shows up and does what’s promised. Angel ticks all of those boxes. If I could give him 10 stars, I would. There’s nothing this guy can’t do- and with a smile on his face. If you’re on the fence about hiring him- JUMP! You won’t regret it!"

"Jacob was exceptionally responsive and communicative and did fantastic work. We had a short timeline to get the drywall repair done, and he worked within our schedule. Because he is local, he came 3 separate times to mud the wall and sand it until it was right. He was always on time and very dependable. The repair job looks great. I will definitely use him for future work and based on his photos on social media, I will ask him to bid on any remodels we might do in our new home."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

Floor joists provide support and stability to the flooring installed above them, whether it be hardwood, tile, or carpet. They’re essentially horizontal beams that hold up the subfloor and everything that lies on top of it. Floor joists also help evenly distribute weight across their structure so that it’s shared between walls, beams, and your foundation.

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.

If you don’t have a power saw with a blade where you can adjust the angle, you could use a miter box and hand saw to make the cuts. The miter box contains wide slots to support the piece of baseboard and other narrow slots to accommodate the blade of the hand saw. However, it’s tough to make non-standard cuts beyond 30 or 45 degrees when using a miter box.

Labor plays a significant role in the installation of butcher block countertops. Depending on who you hire, your location, the customization level of the project, and whether the wood is already finished, you may pay a professional between $10 and $150 per square foot to install a butcher block countertop. On average, expect the per-hour price to run between $60 and $100.
