"Wilson is a skilled craftsman who has rescued so many of my fine antique pieces over the last 15 years. He is extremely talented and very easy to work with. I have given him broken, stained, desiccated and otherwise damaged wooden items that he has restored to their original beauty. I find his prices quite moderate and his work exceptional."

"Amazing craftsmanship and quality work. I highly recommend Bill for any of your handyman needs. We we're selling our house and needed him to touch-up some items and he knocked it out of the park for a very reasonable price. Bill was always on time and was very trustworthy. Look no further for your handyman needs!"

"These young men were prompt, professional and thorough. I needed to prepare for a move and repaint a townhouse quickly and they came in and got the job done. I wanted no surprise fees after I left the property, so I took care of the painting etc. before I moved.
Prior to the furniture loading they took down railings and mounted furniture, electronics, etc. that the movers would not, so everything was good to go. As soon as the furniture was out, there they were, ready to patch, prep and paint nearly every room and some high stairwells too. When the painting was complete, all rails were reinstalled, the townhouse was swept clean, and Justin took down a few lighting fixtures that I almost left behind. Everything passed the owner's inspection.
Adams Contracting is a jovial group, and listens to what the customer needs, which makes working with them all the more pleasant. And an extra shout out to Josh for hauling away everything piled outsisde that AmVets committed to pick up but did not! I would not hesitate to hire them again.

"They did great work painting our extensive exterior wood trim, repairing a section of our fascia, and installing an outdoor light. The technicians and the JW main office were both a pleasure to work with. The great thing about these guys is that if they discover a problem, they can almost always fix it themselves, since they have all the relevant skills. We have hired them often in the past and will not hesitate to do so again."

"The railings were great quality and the installer did a great job. Was disappointed they didn t coat the wooden balusters and railings with polyurethane. We had someone else do that. They need to provide more details during the sales visit, including better samples of wood finishes and samples or good pictures of baluster options."

"We have used Mr. Handyman several times and have been very happy with their work. The first time we used them was when we first moved into our new house and needed a few odd jobs done, such as a stair railing fixed, some large pictures hung on the wall, etc. We were amazed at how much the handyman was able to get done in such a small amount of time and everything was done perfectly. The last time we had them come out was for the demo of our old kitchen countertops, sink, and backsplash. The work done was great, especially considering that the backsplash would not come off easily and took most of the drywall off with it - he repaired/replaced the damaged drywall - it just took much longer than anticipated - which at approximately $100/hour - cost much more than we had budgeted."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Tipping contractors, builders, or general contractors is not customary or expected. Unlike many service professions where tipping is built into the payment structure, construction professionals typically charge a full rate for their services. However, you may choose to tip a worker for exceptional service, such as if they go above and beyond, stay late to meet a deadline, or work on a holiday weekend. Before offering a tip, it's a good idea to ask about the company's policy, as some prohibit their employees from accepting gratuities. If you want to show your appreciation for a job well done without giving a cash tip, consider writing a positive online review or offering to serve as a reference for potential new customers.

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.

Some states require carpenters to be licensed to perform forms of carpentry, such as framing. The license requires a certain amount of experience and to pass an examination. In states that don’t require carpenters to be licensed, they must be licensed as a contractor if they work independently rather than solely as a subcontractor under a licensed builder. Use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to find out whether a potential carpenter is licensed in your state.

Whether or not it’s easier to cut wood when it’s wet versus dry depends largely on the type of tool you use and the wood you’re cutting. For example, a chain saw should still be able to cut through wet wood with relative ease, but it may be more difficult to maneuver due to the wood fibers sticking to the chains of the saw. 

However, you might want to avoid cutting wood entirely when it’s wet if you’re pruning your tree. Sawing a wet tree that you don’t plan on removing can also encourage bacterial and fungal growth and decay.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.
