"Tyler did an excellent job on replacing the floor boards and railings on my 10 x 20 deck with maintenance free boards and aluminum railings. I am very pleased with how it looks. The board going down the middle of the deck adds a lot. Tyler did the work as if it was his deck he was working on, and that means everything to me. I will tell everyone that I talk about my deck to that he did an awesome job. He gets 10 out of 10 stars. Thank you again, Tyler. I appreciate you."

"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."

"Cherry Hill was fantastic. They landscaped the front of our house, added a couple of plants around our deck and planted some hedges and two trees in our back yard. The were extremely courteous, professional and friendly. After the project was complete they followed up by text and by phone to make sure we were satisfied with the work. I hightly recommend them for any landscaping work that you require and will be contacting them again in the future for additional landscaping that we want done. 5 Stars!"

"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."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Homeowners insurance may cover damaged floor joists, depending on your policy. Insurance typically covers issues from storms, fires, or water damage from burst pipes. However, don't expect your insurance company to cover damage from wear and tear, poor maintenance, or termites.

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

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.

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.
