"I hired Far North Woodworks to take down an existing pool deck and build a new one. Nate provided me with a few different options and then had plans made to submit for the permit. He completed the deck with good timing to use for the summer. We love how it turned out and will definitely call him for any future projects!"

"John did an outstanding job on about 9 projects for us. His estimate was fairly priced, he showed up when he said he was going to and did high quality work. It was a bonus that John is such a friendly and engaging guy."

"We had shelves installed in our coat closet to turn it into a pantry, and Brian Clark did a great job. He made sure he understood exactly what we wanted before starting, worked professionally, and was prompt and efficient. We’re very happy with the results and would definitely recommend him."

"Kaydn was hard working, very personable, and clearly focused on fixing our carpet problem—-which he did. Excellent communication to identify our needs, brought all the right equipment, and stayed with the project until completion. Highly recommended!"

"Highly recommended. Jose and Cesar were great. They were reliable and their work was excellent. They completely remodeled our condo including 4 bathrooms, floors, fireplace/hearth, etc. It was a big job and they worked with us to make sure everything came out exactly the way we wanted. The cost was very reasonable."

"We feel very fortunate to have found Brain Martin to do our kitchen installation in our 1848, home in Portland. He is a highly skilled woodworker/ craftsman. Brian went above and beyond to address a number of challenging issues which were the result of working in an older home and this writer ordering incorrect sized cabinets. Do not be fooled by his relaxed, easy going nature- he is an experienced, competent professional. Pricing was very reasonable. You are in excellent hands with Brian."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

While the Arts and Crafts movement inspired many architectural elements, the primary styles from the time include Craftsman, Tudor Revivals, bungalows, and Mission homes. You'll see elements of these styles in homes, churches, museums, and schools—particularly Country Day schools from the era.

Board and batten is a type of wainscotting that uses wider boards that are placed vertically, and it has a much more rustic aesthetic than wainscotting. Common wainscotting styles are raised-panel, flat-panel, and beadboard. Wainscotting is more intricate and will typically use more elegant, subtle trims compared to the more farmhouse-inspired boards of board and batten styles.

On average, the cost to hire a carpenter ranges from about $75 to $100 per hour, depending on the type of carpentry, location, size of the job, and skill level of the carpenter. Get quotes from at least three carpenters in your area to determine the best price for your specific project.

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.

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.
