"I am very pleased with my new porch in the back of my house and my new ramp in the front of my house. Daniel and his crew were very professional and always willing to help. They went above and beyond by painting the brick around my house and power washing the whole house."

"We used Premium Landscape Designs to regrade our entire backyard and install 3 retaining walls. We are planning to have a fire pit, walkway, and deck installed by them next year. We really wanted to use a smaller, local business and definitely got the service we were looking for!"

"Hunter and his partner, Josh, came out to my house and gave me a written estimate for transitioning my gas log fireplace into a sleek, modern glass crystal one. Everything was explained what they would do and within a week the job was done and it looks great. I can't tell you how refreshing it is to have some young and personal professionals come out and do a fantastic job. They were also very easily accessible when I had any questions. Good help is hard to find so now that I know they do many other side jobs, I am already getting them lined up to do some more work. Can't go wrong with these guys and they are insured."

"Juan did a fantastic job helping me yesterday. I had just moved into town Monday. I really needed someone to handle without a lot of oversight. He brought his own tools and did a great job. He cleaned up at the end. I will definitely used him again."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
