"Twombly Home Improvement has done many projects for me; Remodeled a bathroom, erected a gazebo from scratch, repaired a collapsed roof, did wood rot repair around window sills and foundation, did some painting, and other work. Stephen provides great attention to detail, his estimates and final work costs are extremely competitive, he truly cares about his work and most importantly, he is very trustworthy."

"Kenny is amazing and comes with my highest recommendation! If I could give 10 stars I would. He is done a couple of large projects for us. 2 years ago he did a 12x32 Deck with 12x22 screen house. This thing is a monster and very sturdy, we have absolutely loved it! He is very meticulous and has a fine attention to detail and does things correctly. He is very approachable and open to suggestions and changes. A few months ago we decided that we were going to finish our attic - it was easy selecting a contractor, because of Kennys previous work. This was a complete attic remodel. (subfloor, framing, drywall, finish work) Kenny helped design the layout, he came up with ideas, including the use of an existing closet for the stairway which turned out beautiful. He finished on time, on budget and the finished product is amazing! He opened up a big wall in our ceiling and created a loft/balcony and meticulously cut and placed 80 spindles in the rails of the stairs and loft! It looks awesome and we are very grateful. Kenny does the little extra things to ensure a smooth job. He cleans up after himself daily. His prices are very reasonable too. He is also done a few small jobs for us too and treats those with the same care as a large project. I hope he never retires because we have got plenty of projects for years to come! Thanks, Kenny!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

Hiring a woodworker can be expensive, depending on the job, but it’s very often well worth the investment. Woodworkers are able to provide custom pieces of furniture and handmade construction to present a finished product that is exactly to your specifications. If you have a specific vision for a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture or home feature, the cost of hiring a professional woodworker is worthwhile. Plus, you’ll often get a higher quality product than what you could buy in stores for a fraction of the price.

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. 

Professionals ensure safe, thorough repairs using quality materials, extending the life of your structure.

Homeowners insurance may cover damaged floor joists, depending on your policy. Insurance typically covers issues from storms, fires, or water damage from burst pipes. However, don't expect your insurance company to cover damage from wear and tear, poor maintenance, or termites.
