My name is Tyler Dixon and I grew up in Twin Falls, Idaho. I have 10 years of valuable carpentry experience. I spent my first 5 years working for a Post-Frame company in Washington state ranging from concrete work, framing, siding, windows, and finish work. Starting from the bottom working my way up to a foreman position managing jobs. After the Post-Frame chapter I was fortunate enough to join the Carpenters Union Local 70 based in the Seattle area. \nAs a Journeyman carpenter, this is where I started to specialize in finish work ranging anywhere from casework, millwork, doors and frames etc. Top notch work was a must in the Union. \nI started Sage Timber Construction with pride and customer service in mind. It’s our job to make sure your vision is brought to life. Never satisfied until it is! \nSage Timber looks forward to working with you!

"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."
"The cabinets that were refinished in our kitchen turned out great. Chris Pauley did a great job. He is very conscientious about his work. When he says he will be there, he is there. We would recommend him. Phil & Tammy"
"they came in and prepared oak cabinets for painting then did an excellant job of painting all the cabinets, including the trim. Bart and his son kept their work area very clean and neat. And the results were spectacular."
No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.
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.
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.
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.
Homeowners insurance may cover damaged floor joists, depending on your policy. Insurance typically covers issues from storms, fires, or water damage from burst pipes. However, don't expect your insurance company to cover damage from wear and tear, poor maintenance, or termites.
