"Scott Wood did a beautiful job on a fence project for me, and was a fraction of the cost of all the other fence contractors I called. He will be my fence builder from now on. I have recommended him to all my friends and neighbors.."

"I had the pleasure of having Lawrence restore two custom 1920s end tables that were gifted to me as family heirlooms, and the results are absolutely stunning. He carefully refinished them, bringing out their natural beauty while keeping their antique charm intact. The tables look brand new, yet still carry the history and character that make them so special. Lawrence’s craftsmanship and attention to detail are truly impressive—he treated the pieces with such care, and it shows in every finish and smooth surface. I’m beyond grateful to see these heirlooms restored so beautifully, and I will treasure them for years to come."

"Katon is an incredibly talented and skilled woodworker. His craftsmanship is exceptional - his artistry is shown in every detail. His creativity and unique ideas bring so much more to the table. He built us a mudroom bench seat/shelving combo with custom bead board that is not only beautiful, but serves as a functional and practical part of our everyday. He also built us a barn door that is spectacular in every sense. This is not your typical barn door - this structure is divine! It is an impressive piece that every guest inquires about - like every project he has done for us."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Floor joists provide support and stability to the flooring installed above them, whether it be hardwood, tile, or carpet. They’re essentially horizontal beams that hold up the subfloor and everything that lies on top of it. Floor joists also help evenly distribute weight across their structure so that it’s shared between walls, beams, and your foundation.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

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.

While carpenters and woodworkers perform similar tasks, their focus differs. A carpenter is typically responsible for the structural woodwork involved in construction, such as framing, installing sheathing, hanging kitchen cabinets, and installing trusses. In contrast, a woodworker handles more intricate and custom projects, like building custom furniture, installing wainscoting, and creating detailed interior trim and moldings. Based on these definitions, many woodworkers can perform the tasks of a carpenter, but it's always best to discuss your specific project with a professional to ensure they have the necessary skills.

On average, the cost to hire a carpenter ranges from about $75 to $100 per hour, depending on the type of carpentry, location, size of the job, and skill level of the carpenter. Get quotes from at least three carpenters in your area to determine the best price for your specific project.
