"Bought a house and moved to Canandaigua in the summer of 2023. Great house, but the deck needed work. Was really the only thing on the house that did. I hired Sean to replace the decking and repair the stairs. The rails were still in good shape, just needed to be re-stained (Still do, that's a job for me for this spring). He showed up on-time, and got to work with the demo. During the demo it was discovered that several of the joists were rotting and needed to be replaced. We negotiated the additional cost (it was fair) and added that scope to the work. Of course, that meant the job was going to take longer than originally estimated, but Sean took it in stride, showed up every day, did the work, cleaned up after himself, and produced a nice looking deck for me. I'll be calling him first thing in the future should I have any work I need done that's in his wheelhouse."

"So happy we chose R&D for our exterior wall repairs! they were great to work with throughout the process of what turned out to be a complicated issue. Their communication was really appreciated as they dug into things and problem solved some unique issues with how the previous home owners had cut corners on the house. R&D wasn’t the cheapest initial bid we received but I have no doubt that we would have wound up paying more in the end for a lower quality result with anyone else. Thanks guys!"

"Work is not completed as of this time, although I think they are doing a good job it would have been extremely beneficial to know that the quote of the 3 -4 days meant 4 hours the first day and 1 -2 hours the rest. I probably could have been more specific in asking the timeframe to be fair."

Woodworking FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

Spindles on a deck may also be called balusters or pickets. While not as important to the structural support of the deck as the rail posts, they play a critical role in ensuring the deck is safe to use by closing in large gaps in the railing. For this reason, balusters must be no more than 4 inches away from one another.

Whether or not it’s easier to cut wood when it’s wet versus dry depends largely on the type of tool you use and the wood you’re cutting. For example, a chain saw should still be able to cut through wet wood with relative ease, but it may be more difficult to maneuver due to the wood fibers sticking to the chains of the saw. 

However, you might want to avoid cutting wood entirely when it’s wet if you’re pruning your tree. Sawing a wet tree that you don’t plan on removing can also encourage bacterial and fungal growth and decay.

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.

Many people, including professionals in the field, use baluster and spindle interchangeably to describe the vertical components of a railing (or technically, a balustrade). However, there are subtle or distinct differences, depending on who you ask. The most common interpretation is that spindles are thin or delicate versions of balusters.
