"We hired Darin and his team to do new build. It was a challenging project. Darin and his team did an excellent job, helping with some ideas and was very flexible with new changes. Compared to other contractors I worked in the past, Daring always pickup a phone when you call. Very happy with this contractor."

"We recently had our kitchen remodeled, and we couldnâ t be more thrilled with the results. Werkman Builders exceeded all of our expectations from start to finish. They were professional, punctual, and attentive to every detail. The craftsmanship and quality of the work are outstandingâ every element of the kitchen was done to perfection. They kept the project on time and within budget, which was a huge relief. Communication was excellent throughout the process. They listened to our ideas, provided valuable suggestions, and kept us informed at every step. Michael and Mason were respectful of our home, cleaned up daily, and minimized disruption as much as possible. If youâ re looking for a contractor who delivers exceptional results with top-notch service, we highly recommend them. Our kitchen has been transformed into the space weâ ve always dreamed of!"

"We were extremely happy with Jimmy. He did an excellent job repairing our deck and re screening the porch. He responded right away with an estimate and material list. Had some awful hot days to work outside but worked full days anyway. We are retired and spend a lot of time on the porch and deck. Thank you."

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.

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. 

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.

Hiring a woodworker can be expensive, depending on the job, but it’s very often well worth the investment. Woodworkers are able to provide custom pieces of furniture and handmade construction to present a finished product that is exactly to your specifications. If you have a specific vision for a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture or home feature, the cost of hiring a professional woodworker is worthwhile. Plus, you’ll often get a higher quality product than what you could buy in stores for a fraction of the price.

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.
