"Mr Wilson was very professional and completed the deck build in five days. We discussed all cost up front and expectations about this build. He delivered a great project and with no hidden cost. He recommended improvements on design to ensure a very solid and sturdy deck. I would recommend Mr Wilson to anyone looking to hire a contractor for this type of work. I will hire Mr Wilson for two additional projects that I need help with."

"I was seeking an outside contractor to do some improvements on my home. I wanted the outside painted and was so ecstatic after seeing how the outside looked, that I wanted them also to paint some inside rooms. Awesome work and they were very attentive to my questions and concerns. There were several things that were done outside of what was requested, to my benefit. Replacing some rotten wood, molding wood in a couple areas where they noticed water was coming inside, wood borders around my outside building to make it look more appealing and even, and putting up some Sheetrock in my laundry room where there was an exposed area. The start date was supposed to be Jan 2nd, but they started almost a week earlier to do me a favor. Very nice crew and owner! Went above and beyond with everything they did. I told them I may have some more painting to be done and will definitely go with them again and will gladly refer them to others in need! Thanks for a wonderful experience!"

"Thomas, is the absolute greatest! We're a small non-profit organization. We are are Children's Theater camp and were in desperate need of a new stage for our production. Thomas, donated his time and in two (2) hours or less, rebuilt our stage! The children will now be ready to put on a performance of a life-time! Thomas was extremely personable, professional and an overall delight to work with. Mere words aren't enough to convey our heart-felt gratitude and appreciation for Thomas and his work. His work speaks for itself. He is a top-notch guy with a heart of gold. We would recommend him for all of your woodworking needs. Thomas, was truly a gift from God and we couldn't be more pleased."

"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."

"Russ was professional and completed the work quickly. I called this company and he was here the next day. The bathroom fan he installed is exactly what I wanted, and he stayed with my budget. He also installed an electrical plug and cleaned up afterwards! I will definitely use This company again for sure!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

Floor joists provide support and stability to the flooring installed above them, whether it be hardwood, tile, or carpet. They’re essentially horizontal beams that hold up the subfloor and everything that lies on top of it. Floor joists also help evenly distribute weight across their structure so that it’s shared between walls, beams, and your foundation.

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.

A contract should outline the scope of work, timelines, costs, payment schedule, and materials used for clarity and protection.

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.
