"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!!"

"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!"

"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."

"We hired Colton Lingle to turn our unfinished attached basement garage/workshop into a custom library with a window seat. It was a very comprehensive job with many different components (ex: removing/replacing garage door with interior/exterior wall and windows, HVAC access, installing lighting, installing/finishing/painting drywall and ceiling, custom made shelves, trimwork, flooring, etc). He researched what permits we needed and procured them for us. Then, every single day he turned up on time and worked all day until the job was finished, which was all done in a timely manner and with as little interference to our everyday home life as possible. His courtesy, good manners, and professionalism were unparalleled, and very greatly appreciated, especially considering the environment he had to work in, as we weren't even unpacked yet, and we have five large dogs, you can imagine the chaos. He cleaned up after his work and was very careful with all our things. He very generously even tackled a few other tiny projects around the house, as well as gave us good advice about maintenance and future projects in other areas of our home. The quality of his work is masterful. Our new library is flawless and beautiful, and it is precisely what we asked him for. We can't recommend Colton Lingle highly enough. You couldn't find a better contractor if you built him from the ground up yourself."

"Jesse did an outstanding job! He transformed our back deck by installing a railing and gutters, He repaired the flooring and the steps leading off the deck and added non-slip strips. He also power-washed the house and, noticing some minor issues, made some additional suggestions and repairs. Jesse was very friendly. and pleasant. The cost was reasonable and the work was completed in a timely fashion. We couldn’t be happier with the results. We recommend Renaissance Property Services wholeheartedly and without reservation. Great job!"

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

If you don’t have a power saw with a blade where you can adjust the angle, you could use a miter box and hand saw to make the cuts. The miter box contains wide slots to support the piece of baseboard and other narrow slots to accommodate the blade of the hand saw. However, it’s tough to make non-standard cuts beyond 30 or 45 degrees when using a miter box.

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.

While the Arts and Crafts movement inspired many architectural elements, the primary styles from the time include Craftsman, Tudor Revivals, bungalows, and Mission homes. You'll see elements of these styles in homes, churches, museums, and schools—particularly Country Day schools from the era.

The boards between floor joists are called bridging or blocking boards. These are the shortest pieces of wood in the flooring system—with beams being the longest and joists sitting somewhere in the middle—and they serve to reinforce the joists and help provide even support to the flooring above. Bridging specifically helps cut down on uneven and creaking floors in your living area.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.
