Customers say: True professional

"Exceptional work! I hired FAMB Construction, LLC after interviewing quite a contractors (large and small companies) to replace my wood deck with Trex composite decking. Noel and Claudia are extremely professional from start to finish of the project and clearly communicated in detail what work was going to be done. Noel provided a variety of actual samples choose from and provided helpful details on how the project would be completed. My deck looks amazing and Noel even corrected some deck issues that were not within the scope of the project. I would highly recommend FAMB Construction for their high level craftmanship, professionalism, timeliness, and cost efficiency in completing my project. Truly a Five Star ***** contractor, no exaggeration."

"Blackstone Kitchen & Bath provide a wonderful customer service experience from the initial estimation process throughout the product selection and the renovation. My finished kitchen far surpasses the dream kitchen I pictured in my mind’s eye. Junior Wizzart, Salesman assisted me with the product selection and kept me within my budget. Kadir, Project Manager, is very experienced in the renovation process and he shared his knowledge, expertise , and recommendations with me throughout the process since I was a novice in this area. Every Blackstone staff person and laborer who you interact with are professional and courteous. I have already recommended Blackstone Kitchen & Bath to family & friends. I will continue to do so. I am so happy with my new kitchen. Would I use Blackstone Kitchen & Bath for any future projects? YES! YES! YES!"

"Laila did the perfect design job. She was meticulous in measurements and finishes, and it really shows. She guided us through the entire process with patience and humor. She was a joy to work with. I chose the shoe racks, drawers, and hanging elements, and she made it happen. I even got the ironing board feature - love it. The installation team was totally professional. They showed up on time, did a fantastic job, and cleaned up after themselves perfectly. I HIGHLY recommend Closets by Design if you need closet design/organization."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.

If you don’t have a power saw with a blade where you can adjust the angle, you could use a miter box and hand saw to make the cuts. The miter box contains wide slots to support the piece of baseboard and other narrow slots to accommodate the blade of the hand saw. However, it’s tough to make non-standard cuts beyond 30 or 45 degrees when using a miter box.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.
