"It was perfect! They had to replace butcher block countertops that had been incorrectly installed by another company. They came out and gave an estimate and had samples of wood to choose from and gave options for the installation on the edges, etc. They show up when they are scheduled to for all appointments and they explain what they are going to do and how to care for the counters after installation. Exceptional people to work with!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!"

"Les is a real artist. I bought a Craftsman home In the Blue Ridge mountains a year ago. My personal style is mid-century modern. The fireplaces, etc., were very traditional and I needed a large wall unit/desk for the downstairs family room as well. Most of the homes in this area have either traditional or rustic interiors and I was a little worried about finding someone who could translate my aesthetic. I was so lucky to find Les on Angie’s List. Les has an amazing eye for design of all styles. He created two stunning custom mantels and the wall unit of my mid-century modern dreams. He’s in high demand for a good reason. His craftsmanship is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. The European training is evident in the impeccable construction and detailing. Definitely worth the waiting list!"

"DDK Construction did a great job with our front porch steps. We had a 5 year old porch that was rotting, and they replaced the stringers, a new beam/ cement, repaired railing, and new steps. The pricing was competitive, they scheduled us quickly, and the staff was friendly. We had an issue with the finished steps, but they made sure we were completely happy with the end result."

"Mike built a small cabinet and drawer that attached to my existing cabinetry. He did a great job and was gracious enough to come back when somethings needed tweaking. He even assisted with a DIY project I was working on. I highly recommend his services!"

"Great work from Jesse, Ronnie and the team. Put in a hogwire wood fence and the finishing touches really stand out. Got a weeks worth of work done in 3 days to beat the rain. Came back to touch up some minor items with urgency. Thankful for their work and works recommend them for high end wood fence projects."

"John did an excellent job listening to my wants and needs as well as picking out the best materials for the project. The railings look fantastic and they perform as they should. I'd certainly hire John for other similar projects!"

"Very highly recommended. JKH replaced a custom-sized window, siding alongside a chimney, and an exterior door. All three projects involved painting, which was very well done. Jekson Hernandez' communication was excellent, the crew was highly skilled and very respectful, the clean up was perfect. The price was also very reasonable and the time to complete well within expectations. I intend to use JKH Construction again for any home repair projects."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

If you’re just replacing a few broken or damaged joists, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 per joist. However, a complete installation for a home or room will take into account the cost of labor, which ranges from $25 to $40 per hour. Floor joist installation for an entire room, for example, can cost between $5,000 and $10,000, depending on the room's size and the materials used.
