"Outstanding guy… Professional, always on time and the work was beautiful. Painting, electrical, installation. Lucas did a lot of work in my home, left the place spotless and I couldn’t be more happier with the quality of the work. I’d hire this guy any day, I highly recommend him, you won’t be disappointed. Images to follow."

"Found Sentri on Angi. Jeanette and Violet were very pleasant and efficient in getting a contractor to me in the time frame needed. The contractor was excellent and the roof looks great! I would definitely work with them again if I had additional projects."

"Excellent service and high quality workmanship by Rick. He torn down my collapsed garage ceiling and replaced the drywall using screws tape mud to fill and 1/2 drywall. 5/8 if you request. Sanded and painted. What a difference! Easy to work with and his estimates are fair and highly competitive."

A well-versed country-raised handyman with a keen mind and a strong body. I'm a skilled carpenter, good at repairs, and experienced in furniture assembly.\n\nI learned carpentry, welding, and various other skills from my father, Louville "Bill" Kimball, one of the top skilled tradesmen in the state of Florida. With his passing a few years ago, I endeavor to carry on the legacy he left me and provide skilled service to the community

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

While the Arts and Crafts movement inspired many architectural elements, the primary styles from the time include Craftsman, Tudor Revivals, bungalows, and Mission homes. You'll see elements of these styles in homes, churches, museums, and schools—particularly Country Day schools from the era.

If you’re just replacing a few broken or damaged joists, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 per joist. However, a complete installation for a home or room will take into account the cost of labor, which ranges from $25 to $40 per hour. Floor joist installation for an entire room, for example, can cost between $5,000 and $10,000, depending on the room's size and the materials used.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

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.
