"We had an excellent experience with Lux Construction & Remodeling on a large custom trim and molding project in our Bluffton home. They installed chair rail and panel molding throughout our main living areas and stairway along with custom doorway and dining room columns, and the final result completely transformed the house. From the beginning, Bernardo and his crew were great — very patient and collaborative throughout all of the design discussions, layout changes, and finishing details. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail truly stood out, especially with the stairway transitions, custom pillar work, and overall finish quality. The crew was professional, respectful of our home, hardworking, and clearly took pride in their work. We are extremely happy with the final result and highly recommend them to anyone looking for custom trim, molding, columns, or finish carpentry work"

Customers say: True professional

"Joel did an excellent job rescreening our outdoor multipurpose room, adding lattice work and grids to protect the screens. Joel is honest and is a man of his word. He listens well and makes sure he knows what is wanted. There were a couple of delays because of unforseen circumstances involving his partner, but once they hit the ground they maintained a good pace and completeled the work in a timely fashion"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

While you can perform many routine home maintenance jobs yourself, it’s often a good idea to bring pros in for certain tasks. HVAC maintenance, fireplace and chimney inspections, foundation repairs, and roof inspections and repairs should be handled by professionals who know what to look for and can safely perform repairs. You may also find it helpful to hire a local house cleaning service to help with deep cleaning.

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.

Before hiring a carpenter, the most important thing is to make sure they are properly qualified and insured for the job. It’s more than reasonable to ask your prospective carpenter for customer references, as well as about their licensing and insurance. You should also consider choosing a carpenter that specializes in your specific project area to ensure high-quality results.
