"The crew was the most informative respectful group I have met. They actually wanted to work and listened to what I wanted. I would highly recommend this company. After the bathroom remodel they even stuck around to lay a new kitchen floor that wasnâ  t in the plan."

"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."

"Awesome to work with and listens to what you want. Communication was awesome. The quality Workmanship is amazing. This young man has talent!!! It would only allowed me to choose one item that they did for usâ ¦.but Iâ ve listed all the rest.. First we had him make all our cabinets for our kitchen and also our 4 bathroom vanities.. While he was at our home installing them, I asked if heâ d ever made a mantel for a fire placeâ ¦.he had not. But said he was willing to learn. Itâ s a corner fireplace so had to also have the wood for the open top. We also challenged him to make a hidden bookshelf door for under our stairway. He had never made one before. He took the challenge and did an amazing job. Once those were completed, we had him do two more hidden doors. One was a double (another challenge) hidden door bookshelf with storage, the other a single hidden door with storage. Then we had him build a pantry closet. We've given their information/business card out to many people. Weâ ll definitely be hiring them again in our next home. We highly recommend them."

"The man I talked to was very professional and timely. However, he explained that this particular job was beyond the scope of what their company does. I would certainly use them on another 'issue'.

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

If you don’t have a power saw with a blade where you can adjust the angle, you could use a miter box and hand saw to make the cuts. The miter box contains wide slots to support the piece of baseboard and other narrow slots to accommodate the blade of the hand saw. However, it’s tough to make non-standard cuts beyond 30 or 45 degrees when using a miter box.

Rustic and modern farmhouse styles are currently the most popular. These include rustic and antique furniture, muted colors, clean lines, eclectic decor, and natural materials. Some other popular farmhouse styles include the following:

  • Coastal farmhouse: Creates a lighter, airier feel with soft colors and blue palettes, along with gold

  • Colonial farmhouse: Focuses on real antique furniture and decor

  • French farmhouse: Leans on French country architecture and design by including marble and lighter-colored metals, like zinc

  • Industrial farmhouse: Includes thick, chunky furniture and dark metals

  • Scandinavian farmhouse: Usually includes lighter wood colors and more refined furniture

Balusters provide vertical support to make sure your stair railing and/or deck is as sturdy and safe as possible. These spindles help hold up the railing so people walking up or down stairs have something strong to hold onto. They can also act as a unique design element if they’re custom-made to suit a specific style or size requirement.

Floor joists provide support and stability to the flooring installed above them, whether it be hardwood, tile, or carpet. They’re essentially horizontal beams that hold up the subfloor and everything that lies on top of it. Floor joists also help evenly distribute weight across their structure so that it’s shared between walls, beams, and your foundation.

No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.
