"I had two drywall issues, one was with the living room ceiling caused by a roof leak, and the other with my garage ceiling caused by me stepping through it from the attic (doh!). I was contacted by Mark, the owner of M&K Homes, after going through Home Advisor. Mark's bid was not the cheapest of the contractors that contacted me, but he was the most personable and sold me on why paying a little more for his company would be worth it. This was a two day job. Day one was doing the repair and day two was texture and finishing. Both ceilings were originally finished with a "knock down" texture. Mark communicated with me every step of the way, so I knew what to expect and when to expect him. He showed up right on time both days. Mark was very careful to cover everything with drop cloths and plastic curtains to keep the dust off of my furniture. He was very professional right down to giving me a written estimate and how he handled himself throughout the process. The repair and texturing came out perfect! If you need work done and want it done right by a professional that does what he says he is going to do, then you need to call or hire M&K Homes!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Whether or not it’s easier to cut wood when it’s wet versus dry depends largely on the type of tool you use and the wood you’re cutting. For example, a chain saw should still be able to cut through wet wood with relative ease, but it may be more difficult to maneuver due to the wood fibers sticking to the chains of the saw. 

However, you might want to avoid cutting wood entirely when it’s wet if you’re pruning your tree. Sawing a wet tree that you don’t plan on removing can also encourage bacterial and fungal growth and decay.

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.

Board and batten is a type of wainscotting that uses wider boards that are placed vertically, and it has a much more rustic aesthetic than wainscotting. Common wainscotting styles are raised-panel, flat-panel, and beadboard. Wainscotting is more intricate and will typically use more elegant, subtle trims compared to the more farmhouse-inspired boards of board and batten styles.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

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.
