"Diego and Juan, two brothers, installed six archways and additional decorative molding throughout our house, and everything turned out beautifully. They are true craftsmen with top-notch skills, exceptional attention to detail, and a commitment to high-quality work. Beyond their technical precision, they have fabulous aesthetic taste—the archways they designed are elegant and harmonize perfectly with our home's architecture. On top of that, they kept the job site clean and organized from start to finish. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for skilled, reliable carpentry work."

"I would hire HZ Builders(Henry) again! He knows his trade. He was efficient in accessing the project correctly, obtained the appropriate materials, completed the tasks in a very timely manner, communicated with us from initial contact to finish. A first for us, he was the only contractor we knew that came 30 minutes before scheduled time! Thank you for the projects well done."

"Work required repair and sanding settlement cracks and seam tape failures in quite a few areas of our home. In addition the work also required paint matching the existing walls and ceiling color which I thought would almost be impossible. Somehow after trying a few sources Sam came up with a perfect match that blended completely with all the areas surrounding the repairs. We are completely happy with the workmanship, the employees and best of all the competive pricing of the project. Sam is the man for any future work we might require."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Baseboards don’t have to be nailed into studs. However, nailing them into studs adds to their stability. When studs aren’t available, you can secure them with drywall nails directly into the drywall and adhesive. Always aim to nail into studs, especially in high-traffic or impact-prone areas.

Some states require carpenters to be licensed to perform forms of carpentry, such as framing. The license requires a certain amount of experience and to pass an examination. In states that don’t require carpenters to be licensed, they must be licensed as a contractor if they work independently rather than solely as a subcontractor under a licensed builder. Use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to find out whether a potential carpenter is licensed in your state.

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.

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.

There are several mistakes you should avoid when using butcher block countertops. Don't place hot pots or pans directly on the surface, as this can crack the wood and cause permanent damage. Avoid leaving wet items sitting on the surface, and wipe up liquids as soon as possible to avoid stains.
