"After hiring a contractor to do an addition on my bathroom which required creating a front wall, attached to the the main front steps, the project went south rapidly (see before pictures attached). I decided to look for a seasoned carpenter exclusively in detailed woodwork, not knowing if there were such a thing. Skeptically, I contacted this company and after interviewing Diego, I was awed by the thorough inspection, and study he conducted of the project he faced. He was knowledgeable in the wood required, color scheme and details needed to meet my wishes. His price was reasonable despite the intricate worked he faced, and accommodating to my time schedule. Diego and Juan (his brother) were extremely polite, fantastic work ethics and very clean. They supperceed my expectations beyond believe (see after pictures) and will definitely hire them for all other intricate indoor wood work needed in my 200 year old home. Highly recommended them, don't look elsewhere!"

"Henry did a fantastic job covering the exterior trim of our house in aluminum. Carpenter bees had really made a mess of it and now it looks brand new. They also replaced the trim around my front door and I like it better than the original woodwork! Henry and his team were professional and cleaned up everything before leaving. I think it was a good value for the money."

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Many contractors prefer checks because they’re easy to track and have no associated fees. However, many also accept credit cards (though they might add a fee to cover their processing costs).

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

Rustic and modern farmhouse styles are currently the most popular. These include rustic and antique furniture, muted colors, clean lines, eclectic decor, and natural materials. Some other popular farmhouse styles include the following:

  • Coastal farmhouse: Creates a lighter, airier feel with soft colors and blue palettes, along with gold

  • Colonial farmhouse: Focuses on real antique furniture and decor

  • French farmhouse: Leans on French country architecture and design by including marble and lighter-colored metals, like zinc

  • Industrial farmhouse: Includes thick, chunky furniture and dark metals

  • Scandinavian farmhouse: Usually includes lighter wood colors and more refined furniture

Yes, you can find ceiling joists using simple tools if a stud finder isn't available.

Using a hammer requires patience and a keen ear. Gently tap the ceiling in a grid pattern, listening for sound changes. A hollow sound indicates space between joists, while a solid, dull thud suggests a joist. Mark the location with a pencil and confirm by tapping from different angles.

Alternatively, you can use a nail, but this method will leave small holes. You'll feel increased resistance when the nail hits a joist. Mark the spot and repeat the process every 16 or 24 inches to map the joist locations. This method is considered less reliable than using a stud finder.
