"QUALITY work that was praised by not only us, but the other contractors that were hired to finish this project. Good communication and showed up on time to the agreed upon work days. I would hire Olson Construction again on any future projects! Thank you Mark!"

"I will definitely recommend Tyler. Being this was his first complete pole barn build, it turned out excellent. 36' x 63' x 14' high. I had set the poles previously and discovered that my math is not as good as it used to be. I helped some but we had to reset the posts, and everything was down to 1/16". It really made a difference when it came time to build the barn. Very trustworthy and always came out when he said he would. Top tier carpenter you won't regret!"

"I rank Landson Construction #1 in the list of contractors we have hired in our 40 years of home ownership. Ari and his team of subcontractors recently completed a challenging remodel of one of our bathrooms--challenging because it is a very small area with limited space. Their finished job looks better than our separate remodel of a larger bathroom completed by one of the big firms that advertises daily on television. Examples: the tile work in our small shower is exceptional, and the vanity/oversized sink is a perfect match that does not dominate the small room. Ari Erickson (no relation to me) offered selections from his preferred vendors, but we had full latitude to shop on our own for all tile and fixtures. He and his subcontractors kept us fully apprised at all stages of the project, arrived promptly throughout the course of the work, responded promptly to our texts and emails, and cleaned up their work area at the end of each day. My highest recommendation: I always seek at least four bids for a major project, but I would forego that process and hire Landson Construction again for future building/remodeling projects, and would encourage friends and family to do the same."

"First Class Creations were very good to work with on a small project that involved cabinet modification in our kitchen. While they had not installed the cabinets, Cory was very helpful in arranging for â service beyond the. call of dutyâ . He arranged for Tommy to come to our home after he had finished their project and handle our needs. Both were excellent to work with. I would highly recommend them for your remodel project."

"I got three bids on this project, and Kestner was my favorite of the three, so I was very excited when their bid actually came in the lowest. I was already pretty sure I was going with them, and that easily sealed the deal to hire them. This was much more complicated than a typical deck project. It included an outdoor kitchen area and some other features, plus the way it sits against the house is a little out of the ordinary. I had a good idea of what I wanted, but Ryan was SO helpful in making suggestions to help me finalize the details. He really listened to what I wanted, made excellent suggestions and didn't hesitate to be honest when he thought something might not end up looking right. I desperately needed that - especially since this project happened during the COVID shut down so I didn't have as many people around to provide feedback. All of his suggestions were spot on and I am in love with the final project. The whole crew was amazing. They finished the job quickly and weren't disruptive, even while I was working from home the whole time. My neighbor even mentioned that she was impressed by how hard they worked. And honestly they were some of the nicest guys...I was kind of sad when the project was over because it meant we didn't get to joke around anymore. I've got several other major projects on the horizon and I will be hiring them for every one. I can't recommend them enough."

"Dustin quoted on a job of putting crown moulding in our main level and kitchen. He came in within our budget and was able to start a few days later! There were tricky cuts and he managed it very easily. He was always on time and a great communicator. He was reasonably priced and paid a lot of attention to detail. He cleaned up perfectly each day. I’d highly recommend him for any future work!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

While you may have heard people use millwork and carpentry interchangeably, they aren’t the same. Millwork is a type of carpentry, which means that carpentry isn’t always millwork. You can tell millwork apart from other types of carpentry because it’s manufactured at a mill. Notably, casework is also confused with millwork. Casework is different because it refers to boxes like cabinets and bookshelves.

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.
