"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!"

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

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.

You don’t need a cutting board. In fact, cutting is the original purpose of butcher block countertops. That said, wood is porous and can harbor germs. You’ll need to clean your countertop thoroughly after use. Knives can also scratch the surface. This adds to the patina of the wood, but not everyone likes the look—in which case, you may want to use a cutting board.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.
