"Our deck rebuild was the first of many projects that Bill has done for us, and we are still going. As other reviewers have said, it is beyond refreshing to work with Bill and Dallas Construction. We literally wasted years searching for someone that would actually show up and show some interest in what we were trying to do - then we met Bill. There isn't enough space here for me to list all of the positive aspects of working with Bill. What really strikes me is his work ethic and "can-do" approach to design. I know that homeowners can be a difficult and unclear on what it is that they actually want. With Bill, I have been able to bring all of our ideas to fruition and within budget - from the design and completion of a 950 sq./ft. wraparound composite deck, to a complete renovation of our great room that includes the addition of a corner fireplace, numerous windows and doors, as well as re-siding the exterior. All of Bill's work is beyond clean, it is artistic, and shows a level of craftmanship and expertise that you just don't see anymore. I have plenty of before and after pictures to back up my review, and would be happy to share them. This is not our first home remodel rodeo, so we've had plenty of bad experiences over the years with grifters, gougers, and Houdini's. Working with Bill has changed everything, and it gives me great comfort to have him as our contractor, friend, and neighbor."

"Great company, easy to work with. Made sure we were on the same page with design. Cleaned up after themselves. Also made sure we knew what to expect with the whole process. They were professional, friendly and great communicators. Craftsmanship was great. Highly recommend."

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"MDS Handiworks and Home Services exceeded my expectations. Nate was punctual, pleasant, patient, open to questions, and was extremely efficient. He installed three floating bathroom shelves and explained everything clearly. They look fantastic! He also hung a large privacy shade on our open, outdoor south-facing patio. His quality workmanship, clear communication, and reasonable pricing all added up to a very positive experience. We will definitely hire him again for future projects. We highly recommend this professional!"

"Tylor & Jake were professional and courteous. They showed technical competency and finished the job as promised. They could have done a little better job in keeping me informed about scheduling, but this does not take away from my rating at all. Great job!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.

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.

Hiring a woodworker can be expensive, depending on the job, but it’s very often well worth the investment. Woodworkers are able to provide custom pieces of furniture and handmade construction to present a finished product that is exactly to your specifications. If you have a specific vision for a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture or home feature, the cost of hiring a professional woodworker is worthwhile. Plus, you’ll often get a higher quality product than what you could buy in stores for a fraction of the price.

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.

Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.
