"Me and my wife as a first time homeowner, we did purchase a house upstate. We knew it needed lots of work to remodel to match our perfect home idea. We did meet with a few contractors and MX Remodeling company was one of them. After checking the reviews online we decided to meet. Mark (the owner) came to meet with us at our new place. What was different about him, is that he took the time to listen first about the ideas and the needs me and my wife had in mind, he took our idea and did bring it to another level without increasing our budget much. Very detailed, amazing work, great follow up through the work and after, always contacting, always explaining, always making sure we were super happy with the work that was being performed. After talking to different contractors, we knew he was the one from the beginning. It has been 7 month since we finished the first project, didnâ t want to rush putting this review out there since I wasnâ t sure if the company will just disappear after the job is done like most of them do, I will always use him and his company in the future for any needs, I will always make sure my friends and family use only MX Remodeling. This company and the team that represents MX Remodeling are the best."

"Mrs. and Mr. Construction completed deck maintenance, installed a vanity, caulked the shower area, and renovated the kitchen tile floor. The results were very satisfactory and met professional standards. They provided proposals detailing the required tasks and adjusted the final proposal according to budget constraints. They attended all appointments punctually and worked outside regular hours when necessary. Professional advice was given regarding additional property work. Further tasks such as wood floor renovation, backyard fence installation, and other projects are planned to be assigned to them. They are recommended for similar work. Very courteous client service."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

No, you do not usually tip a carpenter for their work. However, if you’ve been very happy with the level of service and quality of work, a 10% to 20% tip would likely be accepted with thanks. If you’re not sure, it can help to discuss the carpenter’s policy or preference for tipping before beginning the project.

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

The pro you need to hire to build your shed depends on the shed you purchase. A local handyman or general contractor can help build a prefab shed for you. However, if you’re looking for a custom shed, contacting a shed builder near you is the best option. Make sure you get quotes from 3 pros to decide on the best pro for your job. 

Tipping contractors, builders, or general contractors is not customary or expected. Unlike many service professions where tipping is built into the payment structure, construction professionals typically charge a full rate for their services. However, you may choose to tip a worker for exceptional service, such as if they go above and beyond, stay late to meet a deadline, or work on a holiday weekend. Before offering a tip, it's a good idea to ask about the company's policy, as some prohibit their employees from accepting gratuities. If you want to show your appreciation for a job well done without giving a cash tip, consider writing a positive online review or offering to serve as a reference for potential new customers.

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.
