Customers say: Quality work

"Highly recommend Woodworks Cabinetry. I did not shop around on prices based on other reviews, so cannot evaluate that. However, it seemed reasonable for all the work done. They revised the floor plan in my kitchen, moved door opening and retiled from foyer through open concept dining and kitchen to hallway and bath. Everything went smoothly. Subcontractors for ceiling repair, electrical and plumbing were excellent and obviously respected the guys from Woodworks. Woodworks employees were very respectful, understanding and patient. They were accommodating to my times. Great company to work with."

"My experience with Artisan Millwork Installation and Design Corp. was top notch. Marcelo Chaves arrived on time, worked tirelessly to finish the project in one day (staying until 7 PM) and left the area spotless. The cabinets look great, are beautifully aligned and very well constructed. I'm very pleased with the work."

"Randy is the best. Great to work with and will always give you his time and expert advice. Kitchen: cabinet refinishing and tile backsplash--outstanding. Living area: installed wood flooring--perfect. His work is impressive. Randy was also an advisor and spent a lot of time helping us with design ideas and picking out the best materials for the job. He is creative, innovative and exacting. Jared Eckensberger is an expert at woodworking and also did a lot of trim work throughout the house which came out to perfection. Everything exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend RH Eckensberger, Inc."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.

On average, the cost to hire a carpenter ranges from about $75 to $100 per hour, depending on the type of carpentry, location, size of the job, and skill level of the carpenter. Get quotes from at least three carpenters in your area to determine the best price for your specific project.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

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.
