"Greg and his nephew installed new cabinets, beadboard, trim and a chandelier dimmer switch. The price was fair, and their work is precise. They are very professional and courteous. They brought my wife's design vision to life, and we're very pleased with the results. We're looking forward to the next project. Thanks again."

"We hired M. Snyder Construction to replace 3 ceilings. This was demo and waste disposal through to finish paint. They started and finished according to the schedule. Mike even took my tenantâ s schedule in mind when planning his time frame. While the dumpster was still on site, Mike let us dispose of construction waste we had gathered up from another project. The entire crew is courteous, trustworthy, professional and capable. I was a Designer at an architectural firm that did historic restoration. I have done many a punch list. I had NO post job issues that needed addressing. We heartily recommend M. Snyder Construction"

"Excellent company, and excellent service all around. George was very personable, and very easy to communicate with. We had a bedroom turned into a full bath, laundry relocated, and new flooring installed. He did exactly what we were looking for, and added some really nice finishing touches. Worked quick, and efficiently, and took care of any issues with the projects very professionally, and attentively. Very affordable as well, as our total price came in under what we were expecting. Will definitely use this company again, and highly recommend him. Thank you!"

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

If you don’t have a power saw with a blade where you can adjust the angle, you could use a miter box and hand saw to make the cuts. The miter box contains wide slots to support the piece of baseboard and other narrow slots to accommodate the blade of the hand saw. However, it’s tough to make non-standard cuts beyond 30 or 45 degrees when using a miter box.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

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.

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, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.
