"Highly recommended!! SES went above and beyond with my house remodel. The owner Shawn is very involved and hands on which made the process even easier. Very professional crew as well. They were always on time and always cleaned up after themselves. Ashley is amazing and always kept us updated and answered any questions that we had. If you want quality work done these are the guys to call. We are so happy with our home and will definitely be using them again in the future."

"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."

"Jeff is by far the best contractor we have ever worked with. He did what he said he would do, when he said he would do it. He was honest, on time, hard working, and fun to have around! He worked with our drawings and offered suggestions on making the remodel better. His craftsmanship is unmatched. We will not let anyone else touch our house but Jeff! Every day we enjoy our new master bedroom and bath even more and wouldn't change a thing. You won't regret hiring Jeff."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Many contractors prefer checks because they’re easy to track and have no associated fees. However, many also accept credit cards (though they might add a fee to cover their processing costs).

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.

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.

General contractors use subcontractors to complete specific parts of a construction project. For example, a general contractor might have construction experience but need a subcontractor to install plumbing lines in a new home.

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.
