"Excellent job! We hired the company for few projects- custom walk-in closets, cabinets and laundry. The precision and attention to detail was exceptional. It was very nice to work with and they listened to every request we made. We were very pleased with the overall experience and will hire them again. Strongly recommend."

"From start to finish this project went well. Rich was an amazing designer, listened to all my needs and gave such helpful suggestions. He was very concern from the start that I be satisfied with the project outcome. There was very little wait time and the installer Dan as a great guy and did a wonderful job. I did call other places before settling with this company. I found the other companies unprofessional and not responsive to my emails. Go with this company, you will be pleased."

"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."

"Marco did a fantastic job on a number of projects around my home - drywall repair, painting, ceramic tile replacement and vintage tub shower hoop installation. He didn't cut corners to save time. Marco takes the time to do things right. He worked efficiently to complete my long list of projects. I highly recommend A.N.M. to anyone who needs any repairs around their house."

"I had a very good experience with Finished Looks. They went above and beyond. I asked them to clean the walls, they not only cleaned them, but painted them. They also did a professional job with the facia and siding parts that were damaged by the whether.. Yes I would hire them again."

"Tom installed a wood railing on my front porch and repaired a shed in my back yard that my husband had built back in the 1980s. There was a day or two that he could not work due to the weather and on those days he worked at home painting the new trim boards for the shed. Tom also removed an old basketball hoop from my garage and replaced the siding at no charge. When Tom completed the projects, my yard was left in the same condition it was when he arrived. I would not hesitate to have Tom back to work on any new projects and I would be happy to recommend him to friends. Thank you Tom !"

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

Many people, including professionals in the field, use baluster and spindle interchangeably to describe the vertical components of a railing (or technically, a balustrade). However, there are subtle or distinct differences, depending on who you ask. The most common interpretation is that spindles are thin or delicate versions of balusters.

Wooden soffits, when properly cared for, can last between 10 and 25 years, depending on the type of wood and the climate you live in. Certain wood types will last longer than others, and you might want to consider the cost of replacing soffits when you break down the total project cost. While an initially higher-priced material might seem counterintuitive, it can make more financial sense if you don’t plan on moving. 

Carpentry is a skilled trade and requires many years of experience to acquire the skills necessary to do the job efficiently and correctly. Because every home requires a carpenter at some stage of the building process, carpenters are typically in high demand. The higher the skill level, the higher the hourly rate the carpenter can charge.
