"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."

"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 did a phenomenal job installing my kitchen cabinets. I had a custom piece made to look like a piece of furniture that everyone who sees it says it looks amazing. He was prompt, polite and very professional. When you spend a pretty penny on cabinets, it's good to know the person installing them knows what they're doing."

"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

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

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.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

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.
