"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."

"Hello! I am a contractor in the Bitterroot Valley specializing in residential framing and exterior timber work. I have worked with Lasting Decks for a while now, and have been impressed with their quality and professional workmanship. Their friendly and knowledgeable personnel have been very helpful to myself and others I associate with, and I will continue to seek out their services. I can certainly recommend Lasting Decks, but only if you want things really well done so your deck will last... up to you, I suppose. 😁 Lyman Jessop, Highland Hills Builders LLC"

"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

No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

Spindles on a deck may also be called balusters or pickets. While not as important to the structural support of the deck as the rail posts, they play a critical role in ensuring the deck is safe to use by closing in large gaps in the railing. For this reason, balusters must be no more than 4 inches away from one another.

While you may have heard people use millwork and carpentry interchangeably, they aren’t the same. Millwork is a type of carpentry, which means that carpentry isn’t always millwork. You can tell millwork apart from other types of carpentry because it’s manufactured at a mill. Notably, casework is also confused with millwork. Casework is different because it refers to boxes like cabinets and bookshelves.

Wooden soffits, when properly cared for, can last between 10 and 25 years, depending on the type of wood and the climate you live in. Certain wood types will last longer than others, and you might want to consider the cost of replacing soffits when you break down the total project cost. While an initially higher-priced material might seem counterintuitive, it can make more financial sense if you don’t plan on moving.
