"I reached out to Mike to repair some exterior trim that was damaged by woodpeckers and sparrows. Mike was responsive and very personable through the entire process. He and Juan were onsite exactly when they said they’d be and had the work completed within a few hours. The work was done to my satisfaction and their pricing was reasonable. I would hire Bedwell Construction again if I needed more work done."

"We had a great experience with Cornerstone Design & Build! Ramon and his team did an amazing job with our new flooring. They removed all of the old flooring and installed the new floors beautifully. What really impressed us was how clean and organized they were throughout the entire process. They took great care of our home, kept everything tidy, and made sure everything looked perfect before they left. The floors turned out amazing, and we couldn’t be happier with the quality of the work. Ramon and his team were professional, reliable, and very easy to work with. We would definitely recommend Cornerstone Design & Build to anyone looking for quality flooring installation or remodeling work!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.

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.

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 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.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.
