"We partnered with Wilber’s for external painting and repair. This included replacing wood with composite where necessary and removal of wood shutters and replacement with polypropylene ones. What distinguished this company from others was the following: Danny S. was the estimator and initially met with my husband. Just prior to the start of the project, Danny returned with the foreman Olger A. He went through the project again with us and talked to Olger about job specifics. Olger is an amazing foreman, on time, efficient, skilled, detailed and an excellent project manager. Danny returned mid project to discuss the work with us and review a repair with Olger. They also did extra work for us not covered with the additional estimate which was handled very efficiently. Additionally, they did some picky repairs, such as reattaching a leader to the house, which was appreciated. The result was a beautiful house with great curb appeal – the result of good teamwork. We highly recommend them."

"Josh was professional, easy to work with, very communicative and did an amazing job designing and building custom bookshelves for us. He was able to seamlessly incorporate our existing crown molding to make the full wall bookshelves look as if they had been there for 100 years. We highly recommend JT Custom Woodwork and can't wait to use them again!"

"Excellent from start to finish. Complete renovation of kitchen/dining room, removing a wall, new exterior doors and windows, siding, etc. Extremely happy with the craftmanship of the finished product, but also the communication and process along the way. Dave and Marvin don't rush around frantically to jump to the next project. They work calmly and methodically, taking the time to explain things, answer questions, and give recommendations along the way. Very responsive and kept us informed every step of the way. Everyone who visits is blown away with the transformation."

"Great service! They were on time, professional and worked all day. The cost was expensive, however, it was an expensive outdoor kitchen and it was installed without a scratch! The team is very communicative and answered all of my questions. They went above and beyond, call the manufacturer when I couldn't answer a question. I highly recommend this team and I will definitely use them in the future!"

"Jared did an amazing job on the railings by staining the wood and replacing the balusters. I was very indecisive about the color of the stain, I changed my mind in the middle of the project . Jared was very patient with me and accommodating. I would recommend Jared for any homeowner looking for a reliable, talented professional"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

While carpenters and woodworkers perform similar tasks, their focus differs. A carpenter is typically responsible for the structural woodwork involved in construction, such as framing, installing sheathing, hanging kitchen cabinets, and installing trusses. In contrast, a woodworker handles more intricate and custom projects, like building custom furniture, installing wainscoting, and creating detailed interior trim and moldings. Based on these definitions, many woodworkers can perform the tasks of a carpenter, but it's always best to discuss your specific project with a professional to ensure they have the necessary skills.

If you’re just replacing a few broken or damaged joists, you can expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 per joist. However, a complete installation for a home or room will take into account the cost of labor, which ranges from $25 to $40 per hour. Floor joist installation for an entire room, for example, can cost between $5,000 and $10,000, depending on the room's size and the materials used.

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.

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.

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.
