"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."

"We are extremely happy with our closets and wall unit. Our designer Tom was amazing. He made many trips to our house to go over all the details with us. He was always available via phone or email as well. Our installer Steve was fabulous as well. Tom came in to check on our project upon installation. There was something he was not happy with. Tom and Steve remedied the problem right there on the spot. Their entire staff are professional and trustworthy.

"I took a half wall out between my kitchen and family room and hired Forest Flooring to install wood flooring where the wall was. Forest cut back the old flooring and installed new boards between the wood flooring in the kitchen and the carpet in the family room. The transition looks great and when itâ s time to install hardwood throughout the remainder of the first floor, Forest will be the first call. Highly recommend."

"It went wonderfully, he's meticulous, always on time, always very professional and courteous.  He's very neat, when he's done at night he puts his tools out of the way of anyone in the household. he's excellent. the wallpaper is excellent, you really have to look to find a seam.  there was wall paper on the ceiling before, the person who did it before didn't connect that to the wall,s he had to install crown molding.  He did an excllent jogbon that also"

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."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

General contractors use subcontractors to complete specific parts of a construction project. For example, a general contractor might have construction experience but need a subcontractor to install plumbing lines in a new home.

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.

A contract should outline the scope of work, timelines, costs, payment schedule, and materials used for clarity and protection.

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.

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.
