"Andrew and his co worker did an amazing job. They went out of there way to ensure the job was done to our expectations and all the materials required were available to complete the job on time. Andrew is very professional and knows his craft. We have already planned our future project to continue inside door and trim replacement with him. Everything was cleaned up and in place at the completion of the work."

"Luis from LJ Flooring is one of the best contractors I've ever worked with. He went above and beyond to work with me on scheduling the job due to some delays on my part with tile delivery. He arrived at the time/day he said he would, and completed the job when agreed. He took extra care to clean up and did all the hard work in removing and reinstalling my kitchen appliances so he could lay tile underneath. He also made some new baseboards where there were none. He helped me select the right color grout too. The new tile looks amazing, the cost was very competitive, and I couldn't be happier."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

Professionals ensure safe, thorough repairs using quality materials, extending the life of your structure.

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. 

If you’re just replacing a few broken or damaged joists, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 per joist. However, a complete installation for a home or room will take into account the cost of labor, which ranges from $25 to $40 per hour. Floor joist installation for an entire room, for example, can cost between $5,000 and $10,000, depending on the room's size and the materials used.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

While the Arts and Crafts movement inspired many architectural elements, the primary styles from the time include Craftsman, Tudor Revivals, bungalows, and Mission homes. You'll see elements of these styles in homes, churches, museums, and schools—particularly Country Day schools from the era.
