"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

There are several mistakes you should avoid when using butcher block countertops. Don't place hot pots or pans directly on the surface, as this can crack the wood and cause permanent damage. Avoid leaving wet items sitting on the surface, and wipe up liquids as soon as possible to avoid stains.

There are two ways you can cut trim for doorways: with a miter saw or a table saw. Mitered joints need a 45-degree angle. If you’re unfamiliar with a miter saw, you might want to consider buying extra trim pieces or choosing butted joints instead. One wrong cut, and you’ll need to power up the saw again with a new piece. 

Butted joints—also called shaker style—don’t need a 45-degree angle. Instead, your side pieces attach perpendicularly to the header trim and only require a straight cut.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

Most contractors do not charge for meetings, but it can depend on the project, mainly if it includes detailed consultations or project planning. For general estimates, homeowners shouldn't expect to be charged. Always ask up front about meeting fees to avoid surprises and ensure you know what’s included in the process.

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.
