"Tony is the rare contractor who truly cares about form and function. He pays attention to every detail. He built new column bases in his shop that are indistinguishable from the originals and the railings are probably straighter now than they've been for fifty years! The mahogany floor is a thing of beauty: It looks gorgeous and we know it is built to last.

Our job was not without some tricky issues, which he dealt with speedily and expertly, explaining what he found and how to fix it. He discovered rotted wood in the fascia and soffit surrounding the porch roof, as well as in the framing joists where they had been touching the floor on top (they looked decent from underneath), requiring more labor and materials than he'd originally estimated. But he and his crew, who are really nice and pleasant guys, just pushed through to get it done. And the final price was not so far off his estimate. Weather and electrical work halted things for a few days, but Tony returned over the weekend to finish painting the columns/railings/woodwork and sanding and staining the floor. We love our new/old porch and we'll definitely hire Tony again for our next project."

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
