"STL Woodworking did a stellar job with my special order for a one-of-a-kind river wood table. I described what I had in mind in terms of wood, colors, and size, and the owner (Greg) crafted the most beautiful table made out of a beautiful piece of macacauba wood and paired with a gorgeous epoxy color and a perfect set of black metal table legs. Greg completed the project on schedule and delivered the piece himself. The table is stunning, so I rearranged my furniture to make it a centerpiece in my sitting area, and I use it daily as my desk working from home. It is truly a piece of functional art. I am so glad I went with STL Woodworking for this project."

Hello, I have owned my own part-time custom woodworking/furniture business for over a decade, which is growing more and more. I create my own custom furniture, as well as reproduction and restoration. I also have experience with built-ins, stairs, trimwork, and cabinetry. I also offer handyman services, I have 18+ years experience in minor home repairs, such as plumbing, drywall repair, deck and fence repair, cement repair, framing and remodeling, and more. I am honest, fair, and if there is a job I am not qualified for, I will disclose that up front, rather than bumble along pretending I know how. Generally my business over the years has been from referral and word of mouth. I believe in delivering top quality work. I take my time, make sure all jobs are done right, I am very thorough, and emphasize attention to detail. I generally overbuild my jobs for strength and longevity, not sacrificing for cost-cutting measures, unless specifically required to do so.

"ASAP Handyman is excellent. He has done several projects for me--from repairing a hole in the roof of a shed (from a tree limb that fell), to installing a bidet, to setting up some complicated pieces of furniture. I plan to hire him for some carpentry and remodeling projects. Honest, on-time, knowledgeable, experienced."

"Wow! Manuel Gomez exceeded our expectations! Mag Selva repaired our backyard bridge and made it look new in less time than projected. We hired him immediately afterwards to build a deck off of our sunroom. His attention of framing was impressive. Manuel hand-picked the wood and the finished deck looks beautiful."

"Mr. Drew was very efficient and professional in repairing the framing under my kitchen sink. He responded immediately to my inquiry, and explained exactly what needed to be done prior to starting. He completed the task within a few hours, and ensured that it was done to my satisfaction. I would highly recommend Start to Finish Home Improvements, Inc. for all carpentry projects."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Board and batten is a type of wainscotting that uses wider boards that are placed vertically, and it has a much more rustic aesthetic than wainscotting. Common wainscotting styles are raised-panel, flat-panel, and beadboard. Wainscotting is more intricate and will typically use more elegant, subtle trims compared to the more farmhouse-inspired boards of board and batten styles.

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.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Most contractors do not charge for meetings, but it can depend on the project, mainly if it includes detailed consultations or project planning. For general estimates, homeowners shouldn't expect to be charged. Always ask up front about meeting fees to avoid surprises and ensure you know what’s included in the process.
