"I got a new sink, Clint and Hugo came out to cut the larger hole in my granite Island countertop. They did a great job on the cut nice and clean, even squared up and realigned the crooked Island countertop from the original installers. They put up a barrier to keep the dust out from the rest of the house and even cleaned up and sealed all my granite countertops after. If you need any installs these guys are a good choice."

"Job was done perfectly. Passed the main test being my wife. She was very pleased. Steve also gave us a quote to attach a gate to our deck which was also done perfectly. Braden did a great job of finishing the work. I would use them again in a heartbeat! Thanks again to Steve and Braden. Quality work. Timely. Cleaned up after. You could tell they care about what they do."

"I am so happy I chose Wilson Construction. I needed a repair of our side porch steps. He came out immediately to give me a quote. The quote was very reasonable and we ended up getting the entire side porch replaced ( it was much needed). It was replaced in one day less than a week after we called. Job well done. I highly recommend, you wonโ€™t regret it."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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. 

There are two ways you can cut trim for doorways: with a miter saw or a table saw. Mitered joints need a 45-degree angle. If you’re unfamiliar with a miter saw, you might want to consider buying extra trim pieces or choosing butted joints instead. One wrong cut, and you’ll need to power up the saw again with a new piece. 

Butted joints—also called shaker style—don’t need a 45-degree angle. Instead, your side pieces attach perpendicularly to the header trim and only require a straight cut.

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.

No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.
