"Moe is awesome. He does a really good job every time. Moe has hung my mirrors, art, painted the bathroom, my kitchen. He is efficient, precise and works well with me and my specific requirements and wishlist. Very friendly. I refer to Moe as Moe, The Contractor, but selection wasn't an option. I highly recommend Moe."

"Sviat couldn't have provided a better experience from beginning to end creating a custom piece for my tiny apt: 1. Quality of workmanship was suburb, 2. Communication was SO EASY via text/pics/calls as needed all through the process. Sviat is very responsive, and working together along the project was very efficient & convenient - ideal for busy ppl, 3. Delivery/payment was a breeze. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for high-quality woodworking."

"Tanem construction did an absolutely amazing job on our house. We renovated several areas of our home, including completing redoing our basement, installing new hardwood floors throughout the house, miscellaneous repairs to the roof, electrical and plumbing work done. All work was excellent and done on schedule and on budget. Owner was extremely professional and friendly, giving us proactive advice throughout the process. 100% would recommend to anyone who needs work done to their home. Best contractor I have ever worked with by far."

"Olsen did a fabulous job! The deck looks great. He went above and beyond by cutting some branches off a tree that was leaving debris on my deck. He also fixed my electrical boxes on the back deck. His workers were polite. I would recommend Olsen and his price was very fair."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

Floor joists provide support and stability to the flooring installed above them, whether it be hardwood, tile, or carpet. They’re essentially horizontal beams that hold up the subfloor and everything that lies on top of it. Floor joists also help evenly distribute weight across their structure so that it’s shared between walls, beams, and your foundation.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Most landscape timbers are 8 feet long, but some are also available in 10-foot and 12-foot lengths. Choose the length that will allow you to install landscape timbers using the least amount of cutting to fit. Shorter timbers will allow you to more easily create angles and shorter plant bed sides.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.
