"It was a pleasure to have Conlan and his staff working in our home. He did an excellent job upgrading the trim in the foyer of our home. It was a part of our home that was precarious due to height and the stairway below but he completed the job safely. He arrived on schedule and cleaned up at the end of the day. He also retrieved a Nerf dart that had been stuck for 10+ years in a high mounted light fixture while he was working nearby :-). We are looking forward to working with Shoreline Woodcraft again on other improvements."

"From our very first inquiry phone call, Adam was professional, friendly, and able to clearly explain the work in layman's terms — which we really appreciated. He was punctual for every meeting, extremely respectful of our time, and very communicative throughout the entire process. We had a short window to get the work done, and Adam and his team completed everything quickly, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. The quality of their work and the smoothness of the whole experience truly exceeded our expectations. We're planning more renovations around our home and will absolutely be hiring Adam and his team again. Highly recommend Magic Frog Carpentry & Woodworks."

"I would not hesitate for a second hiring Horsman Builders for any of my house projects or remodel, in fact that is what I will do from now on. I was nervous starting a project having to handle things on my own but Tim made me comfortable with a detailed estimate, answered all my questions, kept me informed about the work, the site was always clean and the result is awesome, my neighbor was commenting on how great it is just checking it out from a window. Fair price, excellent quality and great customer service. A+"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

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.

On average, the cost to hire a carpenter ranges from about $75 to $100 per hour, depending on the type of carpentry, location, size of the job, and skill level of the carpenter. Get quotes from at least three carpenters in your area to determine the best price for your specific project.

Many people, including professionals in the field, use baluster and spindle interchangeably to describe the vertical components of a railing (or technically, a balustrade). However, there are subtle or distinct differences, depending on who you ask. The most common interpretation is that spindles are thin or delicate versions of balusters.

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. 

Before hiring a carpenter, the most important thing is to make sure they are properly qualified and insured for the job. It’s more than reasonable to ask your prospective carpenter for customer references, as well as about their licensing and insurance. You should also consider choosing a carpenter that specializes in your specific project area to ensure high-quality results.
