"Mr. Quinn is the most professional contractor I have had the pleasure to deal with ever, and I don't say that about very many these days. He is forthright, honest, accurate, trustworthy, creative, does what he says, shows up when he says and finishes a job like no other I have seen. He makes the extra effort to make sure you are happy with what you bought and he installed. I recommend him to everyone I come in contact with needing this type of product/service and I emplore anyone reading this feedback to seek his solutions. I can give no higher recommendation. Thanks Mr. Quinn!"

"The wood decking on our front porch was in bad shape. Brandon replaced the boards where necessary, sanded, and painted. It turned out great! Will definitely hire again."

"We love our cabinets! They look fantastic while remaining affordable. The friendly staff at AWD helped us from start to finish. They are very knowledgeable and gave us advice and tips when needed. They were receptive and patient with our ever-changing needs. Once we finalized our purchase, we received our cabinets within two weeks! The cabinets are very sturdy and the color is beautiful. The hinges and hardware are high quality. We are extremely pleased with AWD and would recommend them to any friends or family looking for good cabinets at a fair price."

"We could not be happier with our bathroom renovation! From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly detail-oriented. The transformation is absolutely beautiful — every part of the bathroom was completed with care and craftsmanship. What stood out most was how kind, honest, and trustworthy they were throughout the entire process. They communicated clearly, showed up when promised, and truly took pride in their work. It’s hard to find someone who is not only talented but also dependable and easy to work with. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality work and a stress-free experience. Thank you for creating such a gorgeous space for our family!"

Closets questions, answered by experts

You may need a building permit to add a closet, depending on the size and kind of work required to install it. The most likely scenario requiring a permit involves changing the structure of the house and performing electrical work for closet lighting. A permit can cost between $100 and $450. If you’re installing a smaller reach-in closet, a permit may not be required, but always check with your local municipality and consult a closet designer or builder.

If you’re on a tight budget, the least expensive material you can buy for DIY closet shelves is chipboard, a.k.a. particle board. This inexpensive material is made from a pulp of sawdust, resin, and glue that’s pressed together under high temperature and pressure. As you can imagine, it’s not very sturdy and might buckle under your blue jean collection, so you should only use it if you’re storing very light items. 

You can design your own closet, but it’s usually better to hire a professional to do the work for you. Not only will you get years of design experience to guide you toward the right layout and material choices, but you’ll also only pay slightly more hiring a professional than you would creating your own plans and hiring a carpenter. A high-quality closet designer can provide insight into how to lay out your closet, and they may be able to find you a good deal on the carpentry or complete the work using an affordable, in-house team.

To prevent sagging, consider both the material and the span of the shelf. Using sturdy materials such as plywood or solid wood can provide better support than particleboard. Additionally, limiting the shelf span to 36 inches or less can reduce the risk of sagging. For longer shelves, incorporating center supports or brackets can offer additional reinforcement.

Plywood offers excellent stability and strength for drawer construction. Baltic birch plywood provides a premium appearance, while standard hardwood plywood offers good value. Solid wood works well but requires more attention to grain direction and seasonal movement.
