"Seth is a very skilled woodworker. We needed custom trim work done and he was excellent--able to match what we already had. We are so happy with the outcome. He was very efficient --got the work done in the time frame he estimated. His rates were also very reasonable. We are now looking for other projects that we can hire him back to do for us. We highly recommend him!"

"Green Bridge Designs was a referral from my neighbors. One that had them do a remodel and another neighbor had just had a smaller job done. I met with the owner, Paul who was very helpful because he offered a solution that fit my budget. A double window was removed and replaced with exterior siding and mid century wood paneling inside. I never liked having the window so it was a great idea. I am not an expert but the work was clearly explained, all my questions answered, and Paul was proactive, considerate, and what I would definitely call a master carpenter. Inside, I can not tell any difference between the old and the new paneling and floorboard. The exterior siding looks original. Also, it was nice that the wood was stained and dried off-site prior to interior installation due to the lingering stain odor. I am at least the third referral from Mayfair and Green Bridge Designs definitely has my vote for all future projects, big or small. Green Bridge Designs was easy to work with, offered me an innovative solution to keep me on budget with their reasonable rates. Very friendly and nice people. I highly recommend!"

"Matthew did numerous projects for me. Built me an entire new fence to replace an old one, repaired an aging deck, and repaired my lawn shed. Work was done in a timely manner, work was very well done. I highly recommend CPR to anyone needing projects done well and priced fairly. Will hire Matthew again."

"Very thankful to have had Chad work on my house as it needed several interior and exterior repairs before I could put it on the market. He worked really hard to get everything done timely and especially impressed with the deck repair that he did. In this case, I did not need a new deck and he was very knowledgeable about what needed to be done. Other companies had quoted me a brand new deck, which was not necessary."

"They did an outstanding job. We had a closed in porch that needed refinished. Dan described what he thought would work and gave us a reasonable quote. The work was done quickly and as promised. They cleaned up after they were finished and moved our furniture back into the room. We love the way the room looks now."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Some states require carpenters to be licensed to perform forms of carpentry, such as framing. The license requires a certain amount of experience and to pass an examination. In states that don’t require carpenters to be licensed, they must be licensed as a contractor if they work independently rather than solely as a subcontractor under a licensed builder. Use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to find out whether a potential carpenter is licensed in your state.

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.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

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.
