"Keith did an outstanding job on our 21 year old deck. He replaced quite a few boards, did a power wash and sealed the deck in approximately 4 days. I think it might have been quicker if we could have avoided the rain. I was very happy with all the work and the look of the deck when finished. I would definitely contact Keith with another project and would highly recommend him."

"Grande Remodeling did more than just pain. They removed all of the old flooring from the whole house and replaced it. They painted every room including the trim, ceilings and doors. They also did plumbing work and installed 2 pet doors. They were fast, polite, and reasonably priced. Even Julio's wife was very helpful. I would recommend them for everything."

They provided clear communication throughout the project, ensuring that we understood the timeline, costs, and any potential changes. The quality of their work was top-notch, with attention to detail in every aspect of the renovation. They completed the project on time, and our basement now looks fantastic – perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. I highly recommend M&K Remodeling for any home renovation projects."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

You don’t need a cutting board. In fact, cutting is the original purpose of butcher block countertops. That said, wood is porous and can harbor germs. You’ll need to clean your countertop thoroughly after use. Knives can also scratch the surface. This adds to the patina of the wood, but not everyone likes the look—in which case, you may want to use a cutting board.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

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.

Before hiring a carpenter, the most important thing is to make sure they are properly qualified and insured for the job. It’s more than reasonable to ask your prospective carpenter for customer references, as well as about their licensing and insurance. You should also consider choosing a carpenter that specializes in your specific project area to ensure high-quality results. 

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.
