"Element elite did a absolutely amazing job for us! We hired them too, fix some concrete slabs and retreat them, filled out a covered patio with rough cut timbers and a full roof and wind wall and we are so happy with the work. They also did this in a very timely manner, and we’re great at communicating. We highly recommend element elite for any job!"

"Excellent. He squeezed us in with our very small project before he started on a big project. Destroying our old deck before installing new one, my yard looked like a war zone, had my doubts, but after the job completed, everything was perfect. Except for the deck. You couldn't even see what work was completed. Recommend him highly. Will use again..."

"Our roofing system—insulation, ventilation, and surface—needed thoughtful replacement. After years of worry, having contractors ghost us, no one willing to look at the project holistically, and sleepless nights, Regulus Building Company LLC stepped in and did an outstanding job. He inspected the situation, came up with a thoughtful plan based on current best practices, hired excellent sub-contractors, and completed the project on time and at a fair price. Unusual in this industry , there was excellent communication from start to finish. We couldn’t be more satisfied and highly recommend Regulus!!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

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.

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.
