Customers say: Quality work

"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."

"If you are looking for an affordable contractor who does amazing work, look no further! The owner Rab and his team do excellent work. They replaced my front porch and deck. Excellent job!!! I would use them again and highly recommend. Roberto is very friendly, courteous, and works hard to get the job done right and on time. He worked as if this was his own home. He has great ideas and provided me with alternatives along the way. His ideas were on point and the design tweaks added that finishing touch I was looking for. Elegant yet functional. Do your homework and always get at least the quotes. If A Pair of Hands Contracting is on your list, I promise you'll see the difference."

"It went spectacularly well! Lori Parisi, the designer, met with us, listened to our needs, suggested certain closet organization configurations and gave us our choices for types of materials. She designed a plan which was in keeping with our needs and our pocketbook. The installer, Eric, came on time, worked conscientiously and efficiently and got it all done in a timely way with no problems. He cleaned up after his work, and was kind enough to cart away the old materials."

"Gil's company was hired to enclose our deck with an enclosed porch. From start to finish his company, workers and staff members were polite, courteous and provided great ideas with in our budget. We were only delayed on a few days due to inclement weather. The porch turned out great and my family enjoys sitting out there nightly. Thanks again GH Clark!"

"The installers of my front steps and railings did an excellent, excellent job. They worked with precision to make sure their installations were correct and measurements were accurate. They did an excellent job cleaning up once they were finished. I plan to use them again in the future."

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"My kitchen floor is absolutely stunning, he was very professional and kept his word with moving quickly. I had bad experiences in the past with unfinished work by other contractors, but this was by far great work and I’m very pleased with the finished look. Definitely will be getting my bathroom next."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

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.

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

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.
