"Great workmanship! Very knowledgeable about installing a wide plank pine floor in our weekend home. Had the right tools for the job. Was willing to answer questions about the process and was willing to make suggestions for a better look and install. Worked with a plan that we reviewed before work started and again about half way through. Mine was a small job and the attention to detail was great. I would recommend NB Woodworks for a small job to renovations to a new build!"

"Harvey and his team did a great job, everything looks great now and is properly installed. They were on time and completed on time and cleaned up after themselves. Harvey fixed work that was very badly done by another contractor."

"Arrived in time. Delivered as promised. I asked for some other paint work. Small hut not part of direct cabinet painting and they did it without hesitation. There was a little more clean up of dust through other rooms but they cleaned up the immediate area thoroughly when done."

"Bart and his assistant came to my house to install a 190-bottle wine refrigerator (WR). The WR had been delivered by Amazon and installed in the basement, but it was still inside a box and was sitting on top of a wooden pallet. Bart and his assistant slid the WR off the pallet and removed the packaging. They set up the WR in the location I wanted, and they had all the appropriate professional equipment needed for the installation and their safety. After they completed the installation, they cleaned the area, removed the packaging and took it with them for disposal. In addition, they took my other 25-bottle wine cooler up from the basement to another room on the first floor of my house. Bart and his assistant was very professional, on time and their price was very reasonable."

Fire Pit Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.

Most homeowners put a layer of compact sand or gravel at the bottom of their firepit, but you can also choose more decorative options like fire-resistant paving stones, bricks, or fire pit glass. Dirt by itself can even work, but other materials do a better job of spreading the heat around.

Short circuits can cause fires, electrical burns, and electrocution, which can lead to serious injury or even death. That’s why it’s important to take preventative measures to prevent short circuits, like getting annual electrical maintenance and an electrical inspection every two to five years, depending on the age of your home.

Baking soda is an effective fire reduction method. However, flour and baking powder are very dangerous around flames. Flour is flammable and it can also conduct electricity. The combination can cause serious injury from electrical shock and worsen the situation by adding fuel to the fire. Baking powder is also not an option as it's also highly flammable. 

To prevent carbon monoxide poisoning on a propane heater, make sure that your heater is suitable for indoor use. When you run the heater, it should always be in a well-ventilated area with proper air circulation. Installing carbon monoxide detectors on every level of your home is also essential. If you have any questions about using a heater indoors, contact a local heating and oil company for more information.
