"I have worked with JD Woodworking for 13 years. They have I fort hired them to install cabinets. I was so impressed with their work and professionalism that I hired them in my next house for a custom office, home theatre and bar. Each of these projects were custom built from the cabinets to the coffered ceilings. I have recommended them to several friends and I would recommend them again without hesitation."

"Josef does excellent work - I would hire him again. He replaced a 15 foot railing in front of my home. He took extra care to match the color of the stain (including sending me pics from the hardware store to confirm). Scheduling took a more back and forth than expected but it was worth the wait."

"Daniel was amazing and very attentive. He reached out to me right away, drove out to review the work that would need to be done and then sent me the estimate later the same day. I hired him for the job right after that. I had to ask to postpone the start of the project by about a week and he was understanding. When I reached back out he said he needed to work around what other jobs he had going on at the same time. He took three (3) days to complete the project of working on my garage and house. This involved power washing, replacing woodwork that needed it, and painting both structures as well as the shutters. I am happy with the outcome of this project. I would highly recommend Daniel / Garfield Construction, Inc. In fact, I would hire him again if / when there is work that needs to get done that is in his area."

"Jim was very professional and we discussed a few different options. When we agreed to a plan he kept me informed as items arrived and this made it easy to schedule the work with him. On the day of the installation of the patio door he was very conscientious and thorough with his work. I would definitely hire him again for a similar job."

"The owner and installers were very professional, and had great communication throughout the process. They came up with functional designs that didn’t cost a fortune and look beautiful. These closets made such a big difference! They did the walk in closet in the primary bedroom and our entryway closet. We liked those so much that we ended up doing both of our sons’ closets and laundry room two months later! I am a Realtor, and I have been referring them to all of my clients! Great company and product!"

"Andrew did a great job on our painting project. He was knowledgeable, courteous, respectful of our property. He moved the furniture around and made sure the furniture and flooring was also covered up. He put the furniture back like we had it and he cleaned up after he was completed. Thank you Andrew for a great job."

"Frank and the crew we had on our two projects (shower remodel and deck) were great to work with. They were professional, straight forward and helpful during the process. Jason and Miguel were great to work with and always left the work sites clean and tidy at end of the day. Both projects were completed timely and we are super satisfied with the results. We interviewed several contractors and Frank and his crew are the best! We will definitely be using Ultra Source Performance for future projects."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

While you may have heard people use millwork and carpentry interchangeably, they aren’t the same. Millwork is a type of carpentry, which means that carpentry isn’t always millwork. You can tell millwork apart from other types of carpentry because it’s manufactured at a mill. Notably, casework is also confused with millwork. Casework is different because it refers to boxes like cabinets and bookshelves.

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.

Labor plays a significant role in the installation of butcher block countertops. Depending on who you hire, your location, the customization level of the project, and whether the wood is already finished, you may pay a professional between $10 and $150 per square foot to install a butcher block countertop. On average, expect the per-hour price to run between $60 and $100.

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.

There are several mistakes you should avoid when using butcher block countertops. Don't place hot pots or pans directly on the surface, as this can crack the wood and cause permanent damage. Avoid leaving wet items sitting on the surface, and wipe up liquids as soon as possible to avoid stains.
