"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!!"

"This is a very nice young couple who does such beautiful work. I had a horrible, overgrown flowerbed in the front of my house that I have been overwhelmed with for at least two years. They came out quickly to view the project when I requested a quote and gave me a reasonable price. They were able to come back in just a few days and do the work. They trimmed the shrubs and rosebushes and cleaned out all the briars and leaves in just a couple of hours. It looks beautiful after they finished. I will definitely be hiring them again in the near future."

Customers say: True professional

"Cary was extremely quick to respond to my original inquiry, and was able to come by my house to review the project later that same day. Cary took his time to listen to my concerns, and examined the issues to be resolved. We agreed on a date and time, and Cary arrived with his coworker Doug, put down protective covering on the wood floor, and discussed how best to address the issue. Very pleased with the results, Cary and Roger's professionalism, and very fair billing as well. I will be utilizing Cary and Doug's expertise for future projects."

"From concept, to design, build, and Install; Eleven Four llc was extremely professional in creating the perfect built in shelf system to accent our living space. Upgrading us from store bought fixtures to a luxury bookshelf that elevated our living space. A true craftsman, artist, and listener. The key as that Eleven Four hears what you want and then delivers with hand made 3d concepts before creation, giving us an exact feel of what our build would look like. Installation was smooth and quick, and adjustments were made to make our old house's walls work to hold this new precise build. We went from a drab space to a fabulous visual accent wall with our bookshelf, all thanks to Matt at Eleven Four, llc."

"Awesome work! We had a very challenging project involving the complete demolition of the large existing deck and replacement, from the existing cement piers up, with new supports, a new composite deck, and steel cable railings topped with composite hand rails. All of this was done working on a steep hill with very little level ground. We felt that Nick treated the project as though he was working on his own home. A lot of thought and care went into everything that he did, including notching the supporting posts and adding diagonals underneath the deck for stability, always above and beyond what other contractors would do. The fit and finish is flawless. We are very proud and pleased with our new and improved deck and we will spend as much as time as we can out there with our feet up enjoying the view."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Balusters provide vertical support to make sure your stair railing and/or deck is as sturdy and safe as possible. These spindles help hold up the railing so people walking up or down stairs have something strong to hold onto. They can also act as a unique design element if they’re custom-made to suit a specific style or size requirement.

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

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.

Most landscape timbers are 8 feet long, but some are also available in 10-foot and 12-foot lengths. Choose the length that will allow you to install landscape timbers using the least amount of cutting to fit. Shorter timbers will allow you to more easily create angles and shorter plant bed sides.
